Some poet [A] sing of a noble king Or of a sweetheart fair
Some tell a tale of ships that sail With treasures rich and rare
But my humble pair still drifts again
To scenes of long ago
Across the sea
To the Benedict
And the winding river O
[Am]
[D]'er
[E]
[A] And the times I had
Were just a lie
On Cairns lovely brace
And when my mind is thus inclined
No [F#m] other joys I [A] know
For my heart remains
On a verdant place
Near the winding river O'er
Ben Brad is crying
Or Don Galantine
Is [G] still within [A] my view
And the Benedict land I worship there
[Em] Still [A] lives in memory too
The beautiful scene of casual greed
[G] Still [D]
haunts wherever [A] I go
And in [Em] all my [A] dreams
I see at sea
The winding river O'er
If fortune smiles on me wise
[A] I would cross the sea again
And all these years
Of toil and tears
Would be forgotten then
And when at last my life has passed
[E] Contentedly I'll go
Across the sea
To the Benedict
And the winding river O'er
Some tell a tale of ships that sail With treasures rich and rare
But my humble pair still drifts again
To scenes of long ago
Across the sea
To the Benedict
And the winding river O
[Am]
[D]'er
[E]
[A] And the times I had
Were just a lie
On Cairns lovely brace
And when my mind is thus inclined
No [F#m] other joys I [A] know
For my heart remains
On a verdant place
Near the winding river O'er
Ben Brad is crying
Or Don Galantine
Is [G] still within [A] my view
And the Benedict land I worship there
[Em] Still [A] lives in memory too
The beautiful scene of casual greed
[G] Still [D]
haunts wherever [A] I go
And in [Em] all my [A] dreams
I see at sea
The winding river O'er
If fortune smiles on me wise
[A] I would cross the sea again
And all these years
Of toil and tears
Would be forgotten then
And when at last my life has passed
[E] Contentedly I'll go
Across the sea
To the Benedict
And the winding river O'er
