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.

Tiny Fish for Japan by Stan Rogers.
Tabbed by Josh O'Leary. My first tab.
Aquired by observing this dude on youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZNtyQRyQ4E.
to him for his great videos.
It is supposed to be crosspicked, but I just strum the chords. Anyways, here are the
I think the guy is playing.
I cant quite figure out the chord I labelled D4?. I play it with the D string on the
fret, and B and e both on the third.
Thats what i think the guy plays, and it sounds good.
Standard tuning, no capo.
G Am D Em
Where Patterson Creek's muddy waters run down
C G Am D
Past the penny arcades, by the harbour downtown,
Em Am D Em
All the old Turtlebacks rust in the rain
C D G
Like they never will leave there again.
G Am D Em
But leave there they will in the hours before dawn,
C G Am D
Slip out in the darkness without word or song;
Em Am D Em
For a few more years yet they will work while they can
C D G
To catch tiny fish for Japan.
D D C G
No white fish or trout here, we leave them alone.
C G Am D
The inspectors raise hell if we take any home.
D D C G
What kind of fisherman can't eat his catch
Em A7 D
Or call what he's taken his own?
G Am D Em
But the plant works three shifts now. There's plenty of pay.
C G Am D
We ship seventeen tons of this garbage each day.
Em Am D Em
If we want to eat fish, then we'll open a can,
C D G
And catch tiny fish for Japan.
D D C G
In the Norfolk Hotel over far too much beer,
C G Am D
The old guys remember when the water ran clear.
D D C G
No poisons with names that we can't understand
Em A7 D
And no tiny fish for Japan...
G Am D Em
So the days run together. Each one is the same.
C G Am D
And it's good that the smelt have no lovelier name.
Em Am D Em
It's all just a job now, we'll work while we can,
C D G
To catch tiny fish for Japan.
C D G
And we'll catch tiny fish for Japan.
