Capo on the 3rd Fret
[Introduction]
D C G D
[Verse 1]
G
Oh Gideon lived across the bay
C G
He's gettin' older now
C G
His boat is big and strong and bold
Am D
She has a stalwart bow
G
But my father's boat was second hand
C G
One someone used before
C G
And after every fishing trip
Am D
My father always swore
G
That someday he would save enough
C G
To go to St. John's town
C G
And buy himself a big new boat
C D G
A boat like Gideon Brown.
C D G
A Boat Like Gideon Brown.
[Verse 2]
G
Confederation came around
C G
And the days of old age pension
C G
He said 'Son I'm saving every cent'
Am D
And this you must not mention
G
You save the baby bonus too
C G
And things just might turn around
C G
And we'll have enough to buy a boat
C D G
A boat like Gideon Brown
[Chorus]
Em
'Cause she can punch the head in any gale
C D
And ride the fishing grounds
G Em
I often thought how proud I'd be
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
[Instrumental]
D C G D
[Verse 3]
G
Many years did pass away
C G
And Dad began to fade
C G
He didn't talk of boats too much
Am D
He said 'Son I'm afraid'
G
If things don't soon improve
C G
Then I'll be underground
G
Before we ever get to see ourselves
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
[Chorus]
Em
'Cause she can punch the head in any gale
C D
And ride the fishing grounds
G Em
I often thought how proud I'd be
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
[Instrumental]
D C G D
[Verse 4]
G
I sat and held his hand one day
C G
And he said 'Son, that policy'
C G
The insurance is all in your name
Am D
You're the beneficiary
G
And when I'm gone they'll pay you off
C G
Then go to St. John's town
C G
And buy yourself a big, new boat
C D G
A boat like Gideon Brown
[Chorus]
Em
'Cause she can punch the head in any gale
C D
And ride the fishing grounds
G Em
I often thought how proud I'd be
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
[Chorus]
Em
'Cause she can punch the head in any gale
C D
And ride the fishing grounds
G Em
I often thought how proud I'd be
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
C D G
In a boat like Gideon Brown
[Instrumental to End]
