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 / C
Once a - / gain with the tide, she / slips her lines,
/ C / Am
Turns her / head and comes a - / wake,
/ Am / C
Where she / lay so still there at / Privateers Wharf,
/ F / Am
Now she / quickly gathers / way,
/ Am / / C
She will / range far / south of the / harbour mouth, and
/ C / D / /
Re - / joice with every / wave, / /
Am / C / F / /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun. / /
/ Am / C
Feel her / bow rise free of / Mother sea,
/ C / Am
In a / sunburst cloud of / spray,
/ Am / C
That / stings the cheek, while the / rigging will speak
/ F / Am
Of / sea miles gone a - / way,
/ Am / C
She is / always best under / full press,
/ C / D / /
Hard / over as she'll / lay. / /
Chorus: @2
Am / C / Am / /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun, / /
/ Am / C
The / proud past queen of the / Grand Banks fleet,
/ C / Am
Port - / rayed on every / dime,
/ Am / D
Knew / hard work in her / time,
/ F / Am
Hard / work in every / line.
/ Am / C
The / rich man's toys o' the / Gloucester boys,
/ C / Am
With their / token bit of / cod,
/ Am / C
They / snapped their spars and / strained to pass
/ C
her / by,
/ F / Am
But she / left them all be - / hind,
/ D
Now her namesake / daughter re - mains,
/ F / Am
To / show what she has / been.
/ C
What every / school boy remembers, and
F / Am
Will not come a - / gain,
/ Am / C
To / think she's the last of the / Grand Bank schooners,
/ Am / D / /
That / fed so many / men. / /
Chorus: @2
Am / C / F / /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun. / /
Break: Fiddle
/ Am / C
So does she / not take wing like a / living thing,
C / Am
Child of the moving / tide,
/ Am / C
See her / pass with grace on the / water's face,
/ F / Am
With / clean and quiet / pride,
/ Am / C
Our / own tall ship of / great renown,
/ Am / D / /
Still / lifts unto the / sky. / /
Am / C / F /
Who will know the / Bluenose in the / sun? /
