Verse 1
The legend (A major) lives on from the
(E minor) Chippewa on down to the (G major) big lake they (D major) call Gitche Gumee. (A major)
The lake, it is said,
never gives (E minor) up her dead
When the skies (G major) of Novem
(D major) ber turn (A major) gloomy
With a load of iron ore
26 ,000 (E minor) tons more
Than the (G major) Edmund Fitzger
(D major) ald weighed (A major) empty
That good shippin' crew
was a (E minor) bone to be chewed
When the gales (G major) of Novem (D major) ber came (A major) early
The ship was the pride of the
(E minor) American side
Comin' (G major) back from Sun
ville (D major) and (A major) Wisconsin
As the big freighters go
it was (E minor) big ger than most
With a (G major) crew and good (D major) captain
well (A major) seasoned
Concluding some terms
with a (E minor) couple of steel firms
When they (G major) left fully loaded (D major)
for Clev (A major) eland
Then later that night
when the (E minor) ship's bell rang
Could it (G major) be the north (D major) wind
making feel (A major) ings? (G major) (D major) (A major)
The wind and the wires
made a (E minor) tattle -tale sound
When the (G major) wave broke (D major) over the (A major) railing
And every man knew,
as the (E minor) captain did too,
Twas the (G major) witch of Novem
(D major) ber come steal (A major) in'.
The dawn came late
and the (E minor) breakfast had to wait
When the gales (G major) of Novem
(D major) ber came slash (A major) in'.
When afternoon came it was freezing (E minor) rain
In the (G major) face of a hur (D major) ricane west
(A major) wind. (G major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
(G major) (D major) (A major)
When supper time came,
the old (E minor) cook came on deck
saying, (G major) fellas, it's (D major) too rough to feed (A major) you.
At 7 p .m. a main (E minor) hatchway gave in
He said, (G major) fellas, it's (D major) been good to (A major) know ya
The captain wired in,
he had wa (E minor) ter comin' in
And (G major) the good shippin'
crew (D major) was in per (A major) il
And later that night
when his light (E minor) s went out of sight
Came the (G major) wrecker,
the Ed (D major) mund Fitzgerald (A major) (G major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
(G major) (D major) (A major)
Does anyone know where
the (E minor) love of God goes
When the (G major) waves turn the (D major) minutes to hours (A major)
The searchers all say they'd have made
(E minor) Whitefish Bay
If they'd (G major) put fifteen (D major) more
miles be (A major) hind her
They might have split up
or they (E minor) might have capsized
They may (G major) have broke (D major) deep
and took wa (A major) ter
And all that remains is the
(E minor) faces and the names
Of the (G major) wives and the (D major) sons and
the daughters (A major) (D major) (A major)
(G major) (D major) (A major)
Lake Huron rolls superi (E minor) or scenes
In the (G major) rooms of her ice (D major) -water man (A major) sion
Oh, Michigan steams like a
(E minor) young man's dreams
The is (G major) lands and (D major) bays are for sportsmen (A major)
And farther below Lake Ontari (E minor) o
Takes (G major) in what Lake (D major) Erie can (A major) send her
The iron boats go as the
mariner (E major) s all (E minor) go
With the (G major) gales of Novem (D major) ber remembered
(A major)

Verse 2
In a (A major) musty
old hall in Detroit (E minor) they prayed
In the (G major) Maritime Sailor's (D major) Cathedral (A major)
The church bell chimes if
it rang twenty (E minor) -nine times
for (G major) each man on the Edmund Fitzger (A major) ald
The legend lives on from the Chip (E minor) pewa on down
of the big (G major) lake they call (D major) Gitche Gumee (A major)
Superior they said never
gives (E minor) up her dead
when the gales (G major) of Novem (D major) ber come
(A major) early (G major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
(G major) (D major) (A major)
(A major)
(A major) you
