[Gm]
In the town of Linenberg down Dover Scotia way, in 1921 on a windy [F] day,
A sailing [Gm] ship was born, [C] oh Blue Nose [G] was her name, will we ever see her kind again?
[Eb] [F] Blue Nose, the ocean [Gm] knows her name, sailors [C] know how proud a [G] ship was she.
[Eb] [F] Blue Nose, clean [Gm] against the wind, racing [C] every wave [G] of the sea.
Her sails were snowy white, they strained [Gm] against the mast,
Her spray rose high as she went [C] racing past.
And from the [Gm] very first, oh Blue Nose loved [G] the wind,
And she loved the smell of sea [Gm] and the sound.
[F] Blue Nose, the ocean [Gm] knows her name, [Eb] sailors [C] know how proud a ship [G] was she.
[Eb] [F] Blue Nose, clean against [Gm] the wind, [Eb] racing every wave [G] of the sea.
For twenty-five long years [F] she ruled the [Gm] northern seas,
She strayed like a queen [C] on the [F] tide.
Then in the [Gm] Caribbean, [C] one dark and [Gm] stormy night,
She ran upon [F] a [G] reef and died.
[Eb] [F] Blue [Bb] Nose, the ocean [Gm] knows her name, [Eb] sailors [F] know how proud a [G] ship was she.
[Eb] [F] Blue Nose, clean against [Gm] the wind, [Eb] racing [F] every wave [Gm] of the sea.
Now just the other day, [F] down Nova [Gm] Scotia way,
At Lennonburg they christened the ship,
[F]
[Cm] Just like the [Gm] old Blue Nose, and [G] to her very name,
The Blue Nose lives and sails again.
[Eb] Blue [F] [Bb] Nose, the ocean [Gm] knows her name, sailors [F] know how proud a [G] ship was she.
[Eb] [F] Blue Nose, clean [Gm] against the wind, [Eb] racing every wave of the sea.
