Biografía:
Stanley Allison Rogers (November 29, 1949 – June 2, 1983) was a Canadian folk musician and songwriter.
Rogers was noted for his rich, baritone voice and his traditional-sounding songs which were frequently inspired by Canadian history and the daily lives of working people, especially those from the fishing villages of the Maritime provinces and, later, the farms of the Canadian prairies and Great Lakes. Rogers died in a fire aboard Air Canada Flight 797 on the ground at the Greater Cincinnati Airport at the age of 33.

[Verse 1]
D
We were bound home in October,
A D
from the shores of Labrador.
G A
Trying to head a strong Nor'easter and
D
snow too.
D
But, the wind swept down up on us,
A D
and the day was dark as night,
G
just before we made
A D
the land at Baccalieu.
[Verse 2]
D
Now we tried to clear the island,
A D
as we brought her further south.
G
But, the wind from up
A D
the Nor'east stronger blew.
D
Till our lookout soon he shouted,
A D
and there lay dead ahead,
G
though a snow squall,
A D
loomed the rocks at Baccalieu.
[Verse 3]
D
But, it was hard down by the tiller,
A D
as we struggled with the sheets,
G A D
tryin' our best to haul 'em in a foot or two.
D
Till our decks so sharply tilted,
A D
We could barely keep our feet,
G
As we struggled,
A D
On the rocks at Baccalieu.
[Verse 4]
D
Now the combers beat her under, and
A D
I thought she'd never rise, and
G A D
Her main boom, it was bending nigh in two.
D
With her lee rails two foot under,
A D
Three hands upon the wheel,
G
Sure we hauled her,
A D
from the rocks at Baccalieu.
[Break]
(One verse instrumental with fiddle)
[Verse 5]
D
To leeward was the island,
A D
To windward was the shore, and
G
That blinding sleet could,
A D
cut you through and through.
D
But, our hearts were beating gladly,
A D
for no longer could we gaze,
G
down to leeward,
A D
at the rocks of Baccalieu.
G
Down to leeward,
A D
at the rocks of Baccalieu.
