[Bb] [Bbm] [C]
[Abm] [Gm] [Bbm]
[F]
I saw [C] the harbor lights, they only told me we [G] were [Am] parting.
[F] The same [Am] old [C] harbor lights that once brought you [F] to me.
[Dm] [Bb] I [C] watched the harbor lights, how could I help if tears [F] were starting?
Far [C] too tender [Gm] lies, [Bb] beside the [F] silvery [Bb] sea.
[F] I long [Bb] to hold you near [Bbm] and kiss you [F] just once more.
But you [G] were on the ship and I was on [Gm] the shore.
[C] Now I know lovely lies, for all the while my [F] heart is [C] whispering.
[F]
Some [C]
will steal your love [F] from me.
[Bb]
I [F] [Bb] long to hold you near [Bbm] and kiss you just once [F] more.
[Dm] But you [G] were on the ship and I was on the [Gm] shore.
[C] Now I [F] know [C] lovely lies, for all the [Gm] while my [F] heart [E] is [F] whispering.
Some [C] other harbor lights will steal your love [F] from me.
