Intro:  D   C   D  [4 beats per note for the intro.]

Verse 1:
    G 
Oh Gideon lived across the bay,
 C            G 
He's getting older now.
 C           G 
His boat is big and bold.
        Am          D 
She has a stalward 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.


CHORUS:
                         Em 
 'Cause she can punch the head in any gale
     C                D 
And ride the fishing grounds.
   G                 Em 
I often thought how pround I'd be
      C         D      G 
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
      C         D      G 
In a boat like Gideon Brown.



Verse 2:
      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;
 C                         G 
Before we ever get to see ourselves,
      C         D      G 
In a boat like Gideon Brown.



CHORUS
           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 
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
      C         D      G 
In a boat like Gideon Brown.
