Northwest Passage - Stan Rogers
C G F Am
Ah for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
F C Dm F
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
C G F Am
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
F C G C
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
C G F Am
Westward from the Davis Strait, 'tis there was said to lie
F C Dm F
The sea route to the orient for which so many died
C G F Am
Seeking gold and glory, leaving weathered broken bones
F C G C
And a long forgotten lonely cairn of stones
C G F Am
Ah for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
F C Dm F
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
C G F Am
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
F C G C
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
C G F Am
Three centuries thereafter I take passage over land
F C Dm F
In the footsteps of brave Kelso where his "Sea of Flowers" began
C G F Am
Watching cities rise before me then behind me sink again
F C G C
This tardiest explorer driving hard across the plains
C G F Am
Ah for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
F C Dm F
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
C G F Am
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
F C G C
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
C G F Am
And through the night behind the wheel, the mileage clicking west
F C Dm F
I think upon Mackenzie, David Thompson, and the rest
C G F Am
Who cracked the mountain ramparts and did show a path for me
F C G C
To race the roaring Fraser to the sea
C G F Am
Ah for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
F C Dm F
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
C G F Am
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
F C G C
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
(Refrain - Instrumental)
C G F Am
How then am I so different from the first men through this way
F C Dm F
Like them, I left a settled life, I threw it all away
C G F Am
To seek a Northwest Passage at the call of many men
F C G C
To find there but the road back home again
C G F Am
Ah for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
F C Dm F
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
C G F Am
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
F C G C
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
