G D Asus2 Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty. Em That good ship and crew was a bone to be chewed. G D Asus2 When the Gales of November came early. Em The ship was the pride of the American side. G D Asus2 Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin. Em As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most. Em And later that night when 'is lights went outta sight. G D Asus2 Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Em Does any one know where the love of God goes. G D Asus2 When the waves turn the minutes to hours
