[Verse 1]
B5Westward from the A5Davis strait
'Tis G5there 'twas said to lB5ie
B5The sea route to the oA5rient
For G5which so many E5died
B5Seeking gold and A5glory
Leaving weaG5thered, broken boD5nes
And a G5long-forgotten lD5onely cC#5airn of B5stones
[Chorus]
Ah, for D5just one A5time
I will take the G5Northwest B5passage.
To G5find the hand of D5Franklin
Reaching E5for the Beaufort seGa
Tracing D5one warm A5line
Through a G5land so wild and B5savage
And G5make a northwest D5passage A5to the D5sea
