Gideon Brown chords by Great Big Sea


Great Big Sea Chords

Gideon Brown (Capo 3)
Great Big Sea

(D  C  D)

Oh (G)Gideon lived across the bay, he's (C)gettin' older (G)now 
His(C) boat is big and (G)strong and bold, she (Am)has a stalward (D)bow 

But my (G)father's boat was second hand, one (C)someone used be(G)fore 
And (C)after every fishing (G)trip, (Am)My father always (D)swore 

That (G)someday he would save enough 
To (C)go to St. John's (G)town, and (C)buy himself a (G)big new (Em)boat 
A (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown, a (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown 

Con(G)federation came around and the (C)days of old age (G)pension 
He said '(C)Son I'm saving (G)every cent' and (Am)this you must not (D)mention 
You (G)save the baby bonus too and things (C)just might turn a(G)round 
And we'll (C)have enough to (G)buy a (Em)boat, a (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown 

Chorus
'Cause she can (Em) punch ahead in any gale 
And (C)ride the fishing (D)ground, I (G)often thought how proud I'd be 
A (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown, A (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown

(G)Many years did pass away and (C)Dad began to (G)fade 
He (C)didn't talk of (G)boats too much. He (Am)said 'Son I'm a(D)fraid' 
If (G)things don't soon improve then (C)I'll be under(G)ground 
Before we (C)ever get to (G)see our(Em)selves in a (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown 

(Chorus)

I (G)sat and held his hand one day and he said (C)'Son, that poli(G)cy' 
The in(C)surance is all (G)in your name. You're (Am)the beneficia(D)ry 
And (G)when I'm gone they'll pay you off; then (C)go to St. John's (G)town 
And (C)buy yourself a (G)big new (Em)boat, a (C)boat like (D)Gideon (G)Brown 

(Chorus 2x)
