[Intro]
| Am| G   D| x2
[Verse]
Am32 men on a Great Lakes boat
CQuit the pier at Thunder Bay
G28,000 tons of coal
On a Fcold November Gday
Am800 feet and 10 more long
C80 feet across
The Gsteel mills of Detroit
Our destiFnation through the Gfrost
AmAt 2 AM on the 2nd
Waves were Crunnin' up to 40 feet
GWinds were blowing 60 miles
Our Fengines crankin' Gheat
AmAt 3:13 we took a wave
Our Cwheelhouse left behind
The Gradar slipped beneath the waves
And Fwe were runnin' Gblind
CHear me call across the Gwaves
If I don't come home tonAmight
I will make it home some FdayG  
[Chorus]
(AmSteel boats and iron men)
G32 down on the DRobert Mackenzie
(AmSteel boats and iron men)
G32 down on the DRobert Mackenzie
(AmSteel boats and iron men)
E32 down on the Robert Mackenzie
[Verse]
A Amcaptain name of Phillips
Seekin' Cshelter from the storm
GTurned us south of Bête Grise Bay
By Fway of Keewenaw Gpoint
But the Amwind was blowing at such a rate
We Cended up driftin' north
A Gwave broke over a knife of rock
FSix Fathom Shoal
AmMackenzie she was cut in half
The Cstern she ram the bow
The Gmen were calling metaljunk
FFlames burned out of Emhell
AmStern kept running on lights of blades
Not Cone man would be found
GCaptain's last transmission read
F32 men down, 32 men down
CHear me call across the Gwaves
If I don't come home tonAmight
I will make it home FsomedayG  
[Chorus]
(AmSteel boats and iron men)
G32 down on the DRobert Mackenzie
(AmSteel boats and iron men)
G32 down on the DRobert Mackenzie
(AmSteel boats and iron men)
G32 down on the DRobert Mackenzie
FDown Down Down Down GDown Down Down Down
[Outro]
CAnd they call across the Gwaves
If I don't come home toniAmght
I will make it home someFdayG  
CYes, I call across the waGves
If I don't come home toniAmght
I will make it home some FdayG
