E
Chippewa on down to the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.
The lake, it is said,
Bm
never gives up her dead
D
When the skies of Novem
A
E
ber turn gloomy
With a load of iron ore
D
Than the Edmund Fitzger
A
E
ald weighed empty
That good shippin' crew
Bm
was a bone to be chewed
D
A
E
When the gales of November came early
The ship was the pride of the
A
E
ville and Wisconsin
As the big freighters go
Bm
it was big ger than most
D
A
With a crew and good captain
Concluding some terms
Bm
with a couple of steel firms
D
A
When they left fully loaded
Then later that night
Bm
when the ship's bell rang
D
A
Could it be the north wind
E
D
A
E
making feelings?
The wind and the wires
Bm
made a tattle -tale sound
D
A
E
When the wave broke over the railing
And every man knew,
Bm
as the captain did too,
D
Twas the witch of Novem
A
E
ber come stealin'.
The dawn came late

In the face of a hurricane west

the old cook came on deck
D
A
E
saying, fellas, it's too rough to feed you.
Bm
At 7 p .m. a main hatchway gave in
D
A
E
He said, fellas, it's been good to know ya
The captain wired in,
Bm
he had water comin' in
A
E
crew was in peril
And later that night
Bm
when his lights went out of sight
A
E
D

A
E
the Edmund Fitzgerald
D
A
E
Does anyone know where
Bm
the love of God goes
D
A
E
When the waves turn the minutes to hours
The searchers all say they'd have made
D
A
If they'd put fifteen more
They might have split up
Bm
or they might have capsized
D
A
They may have broke deep
And all that remains is the
D
A
Of the wives and the sons and
E

the daughters

Bm
Lake Huron rolls superior scenes
D
A
E
In the rooms of her ice -water mansion
Oh, Michigan steams like a
D
A
E
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
Bm
And farther below Lake Ontario
D
A
E
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
The iron boats go as the
B
Bm
mariners all go
D
A
With the gales of November remembered

D
A
E
In the Maritime Sailor's Cathedral
The church bell chimes if
Bm
it rang twenty -nine times
D

for each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald
Bm
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
D
A
E
of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
Superior they said never
D
A
when the gales of November come
E
early
