Lord Franklin The Pentangle
I was homeward b[D]ound one night on the deep[G]
[Em]Swinging in my hammock I fe[A]ll asleep
I dre[D]amed a dream and I tho[G]ught it tr[D]ue
[Em]Concerning Fra[A]nklin and his ga[G]llant c[D]rew[G]
[D]With a hundred seamen he sai[G]led away
[Em]O'er frozen oceans in the m[A]onth of May
[D]To seek a passage arou[G]nd the po[D]le
[Em]Where we poor se[A]amen must so[G]metimes g[D]o[G]
[D]Through cruel hardships they ma[G]inly strove
[Em]Their ship on mountains of i[A]ce was drove
[D]Only the Eskimo with his s[G]kin ca[D]noe
[Em]Was the only o[A]ne that e[G]ver came thr[D]ough[G]
[D]In Baffin's Bay where the wh[G]ale fishes blow
[Em]The fate of Franklin no m[A]an may know
[D]The fate of Franklin no ton[G]gue can t[D]ell
[Em]Lord Franklin alo[A]ne with his sail[G]ors does dw[D]ell[G]
[D]And now my body it giv[G]es me pain
[Em]For my long lost Franklin I would cr[A]oss the main
[D]Ten thousand pounds I would f[G]reely g[D]ive
[Em]To know on ear[A]th that my Frank[G]lin does l[D]ive [G] [D]
