Biography:
Stanley Allison Rogers (November 29, 1949 – June 2, 1983) was a Canadian folk musician and songwriter.
Rogers was noted for his rich, baritone voice and his traditional-sounding songs which were frequently inspired by Canadian history and the daily lives of working people, especially those from the fishing villages of the Maritime provinces and, later, the farms of the Canadian prairies and Great Lakes. Rogers died in a fire aboard Air Canada Flight 797 on the ground at the Greater Cincinnati Airport at the age of 33.

Am G
Once again with the tide she slips her lines
F G
Turns her head and comes awake
Am G
Where she lay so still there at Privateer's Wharf
F
Now she quickly gathers way
C
She will range far south
E
From the harbor mouth
Am D
And rejoice with every wave
Am G Am
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
Am G
Feel her bow rise free of mother sea
F G
In a sunburst cloud of spray
Am
That stings the cheek
G
While the rigging will speak
F G
Of sea miles gone away
C E
She is always best under full press
Am D
Hard over as she'll lay
Am G Am
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
Am G Am
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
D G
The proud fast queen of the Grand Banks fleet
C E
Portrayed on every dime
Am D
Knew hard work in her time
Am G D
Hard work in every line
D G
The rich men's toys are the Gloucester boys
C E
With their token bit 'o cod
Am G D
They snap their spars and strain to pass her by
E Am
But she left them all behind
Am G
Now only her namesake daughter remains
F G Am
To show what she has been
G
What every schoolboy remembers
F
And will not come again
C E
To think she's the last of the Grand Banks schooners
Am D
That fed so many men
Am G F G
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
Am G Am
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
(break)
Am
So does she not take wing
G
Like a living thing
F G
Child of the moving tide
Am
See her fast swift grace
G
On the water's face
F
With gleamin' quiet pride
C E
Our own tall ship of great renown
Am D
Still lifts unto the sky
Am G F G
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
Am G F G
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
Am G F
Who will know the Bluenose in the sun
Am G D
know the Bluenose in the sun
C G Am
know the Bluenose in the sun
