[Dm] Underneath [D] the silver moon, [Bb] the ship is like a ghost.
[C] She's been out there for [A] a week just [Dm] waiting for the whistle blow.
But now she's [D] off and running [E]
and [Bb] there's nothing I can do.
[Gm] Cause I'm just a prisoner here [A] until this war is through.
And I'm singing, [D] [Dm] sailor, can [Am] you hear me?
[Gm] Sailor, hear my call.
Sailor, take [Am] me with you.
[Gm] Sailor, [G]
take me [Dm] home.
Yesterday I saw a seabird [Bb] feeling light [Bb] and low.
[C] And she sailed off to [A] the west like [Dm] she was telling me the way to go.
If I had her wings, my love, [Bb] I'd be with you tonight.
[Gm] But my last hope has gone.
[A] It's drifting out of sight, away from me.
[Dm] Oh, sailor, take [Am] me to her.
[Gm] Sailor, take [Dm] me home.

[Bb] [A]
[Dm] To [C] [Dm] see the [Bb] sky, to hear the [A] waves bring on the shore [Dm] again.
To be with you, [C] to lie with [Bb] you, to hear your voice [B] echo through the hills [A] [Dm] again.
Oh, my darling, [C] wait for [C] me, [Bb] cause I will be there.
When [B] it is [A] over, when it is over, your [Bb] sky will return.
Oh, [A] yes.
[Dm]
Sailor, take me [Am] to her.
Oh, [Gm] sailor, take [Dm] me home.
Sailor, can [Am] you hear me?
[Ab] Sailor, hear [Dm] my call.
Sailor, [Am]
[Gm] sailor, [Dm]
sailor, [Am]
[Gm] sailor.
