Song:

Ah     for     just   one    time,
5      5-44      4       5     -4    
I would take the north - west passage
5    6      -6     6      6         5      6 -6
To find the  hand  of   Franklin
7      7    -7    -6      6     6 5 -4
Reaching   for the    Beaufort sea
 4    5        -4    5       4      3      3*  
Tracing one more line
5 5 -4      4     5      -4
Through a land so wide and savage
      5       6   -6    6    6     5     6  -6 
And make a north-west passage to the sea
7        7    -7   -6      6      5   5      -4  4   4  

 

 

There are days that I wish this would be put forward as an alternate / additional national anthem for Canada.

I tried this on an A harp and a Crossover G Marine Band - still haven't quite bent to the Bb I am looking for from the 3 hole, but not giving up trying.

Thanks...I am new to this
