Chorus:
Ah, for [/]/ [D]just one [/]/ [A]time,
I would [/]/ [G]take the Northwest [/]/ [Bm]Passage
To [/]/ f[G]ind the hand of [/]/ [D]Franklin,
Reaching [/]/ [Em]for the Beaufort [/]/ [G]Sea.
Tracing [/]/ [D]one warm [/]/ [A]line,
Through a [/]/ [G]land so wide and [/]/ [Bm]savage, and
[G]Make a Northwest [/]/ [D]Pass[-]age, [A]to the [/]/ s[D]ea. [/]/ [/]/

[D]Westward from the [/]/ [A]Davis Strait,
'Tis [/]/ [G]there was said to [/]/ [Bm]lie,
The [/]/ [G]sea route to the [/]/ [D]Orient,
For [/]/ [G]which so many [/]/ d[Em]ied,
[D]Seeking gold and [/]/ [A]glory,
Leaving [/]/ [G]weathered broken [/]/ [Bm]bones, and
A [/]/ [G]long forgotten [/]/ [D]lon[-]ely [A]cairn of [/]/ [D]stones. [/]/ [/]/

Chorus:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/stan_rogers/northwest_passage_crd_ver_2.html )
Three [/]/ [D]centuries there - [/]/ [A]after,
I take [/]/ [G]passage over [/]/ [Bm]land,
In the [/]/ [G]footsteps of brave [/]/ [D]Kelso,
Where his [/]/ [Em]"sea of flowers" be - [/]/ [G]gan.
Watching[/] / [D]cities rise be - [/]/ [A]fore me,
Then be - [/]/ [G]hind me sink a - [/]/ [Bm]gain,
This [/]/ [G]tardiest ex - [/]/ [D]plorer,
Driving [/]/ [D]hard, [-]a - [A]cross the [/]/ [D]plains. / /

Chorus:

And [/]/ [D]through the night be - [/]/ [A]hind the wheel,
The [/]/ [G]mileage clicking [/]/ [Bm]west,
I [/]/ [G]think upon Mac - [/]/ [D]kenzie,
David [/]/ [Em]Thompson, and the [/]/ [G]rest,
Who [/]/ [D]cracked the mountain [/]/ [A]ramparts, and
Did [/]/ [G]show a path for [/]/ [Bm]me,
To [/]/ [G]race the roaring [/]/ [D]Fras[-]er, [A]to the [/]/ [D]sea. [/]/ [/]/

Chorus:

How [/]/ [D]then am I so [/]/ [A]different,
From the [/]/ [G]first men through this [/]/ [Bm]way,
Like [/]/ [G]them, I left a [/]/ [D]settled life,
I [/]/ [Em]threw it all a - [/]/ [G]way,
To [/]/ [D]seek a Northwest [/]/ [A]Passage,
At the [/]/ [G]call of many [/]/ [Bm]men,
To [/]/ [G]find there, but the [/]/ [D]road[-] back [A]home a - [/]/ [D]gain. [/]/ [/]/
