Verse 1
(A major) West Quay, (D major)
where we stood (G major) to say (D major) our good (A major) byes
(G major) Au gust at (D major) midnight at the (B minor) turn of the (A major) tide
So still (G major) and dark,
(D major) nature's warm embrace (A major)
The long (G major) ship, the (A major) channel to (D major) face
And the (G major) stars, they did (D major) twinkle,
and the shooting stars fell (A major)
On a (G major) still summer's (D major) night,
it was just (B minor) about twelve (A major)
The (G major) sea in her slum (D major) ber,
as she rode a light swell, (A major)
We said (G major) our good (A major) -bye to the long (D major) ship.
The ship, was lost, (G major)
and the (D major) flames said well, (A major)
I rang (G major) slow and low, (D major)
the street (B minor) -criers' (A major) bell,
Not a (G major) word it was said, (D major)
in our loving farewell, (B minor) (A major)
As the (G major) flames curled and
caressed (A major) it per se. (D major)
And the (G major) stars they did (D major) twinkle,
and the shooting stars (A major) fell,
On a (G major) still summer's (D major) night,
it was (B minor) just about twelve. (A major)
The sea (G major) in her slum (D major) ber,
as she rode a light swell, (A major)
We said (G major) our goodbye (A major) to
the (D major) long ship.
She drifted so silently, (G major)
(D major) floating on air (A major) ,
Burning ever (G major) so brightly (D major)
and lighting (B minor) the sea (A major) air.
Slowly, (G major) oh slowly, (D major)
she's drifting away (A major)
Time (G major) just stood still (A major)
at the (D major) end of the day (A major) (D major)
(G major) (D major) (B minor) (A major) (G major) (A major)
Further (D major) and fur (G major) ther away (D major) she did go (A major)
Still (G major) in our (D major) sight as the (G major) sea rolls (E minor) and flows (A major)
But (G major) smaller and (D major) smaller
the light did it glow
(A major) But a heart's (G major) ever brighter (A major)
sweet see (D major) the ship row
And the (G major) stars they did (D major) twinkle
and the shooting stars fell (A major)
On a (G major) still summer's (D major) night
was (B minor) just about twelve (A major)
The (G major) sea in her slum (D major) ber,
as she rode a light (G major) swell (A major)
We said (G major) our good (A major) -bye to the long (D major) chill
Then the keel, it does break (G major)
and made (D major) of the flame (A major)
And (G major) soon she is gone (D major)
from (B minor) out of our (A major) gaze
The si (G major) lence is broken
(D major) by the geese flying by (A major)
Car (G major) rying his spir (A major) it on
their wing (D major) s to the sky
And the (G major) stars they did (D major) twinkle
and the shooting stars (B minor) fell (A major)
On a (G major) still summer's (D major) night
was just (B minor) about twelve (A major)
The (G major) sea in her slum (D major) ber,
as she rode a line so (A major) wild,
We said (G major) our good (A major) bye to the (D major) long trip.
We said (G major) our good (A major) bye to the long (D major) trip.
you
