[A]
[E]
[A]
It happens on a cold December morning.
Together with mother and sister, I was waiting [E] at the harbor to pick up my daddy.
[A] He was returning from the sea to celebrate his birthday with us.
The winds increased to gale force and the thundery clouds darkened the sky.
[E] Then an old fisherman told of a boat at sea [A] sending out an SOS.
[D] We've been waiting so
[A] long.
I will meet you now and beg [E] you [A] please [E] come home.
[A]
If I had only a chance to see [E] your face again.
You'd better call me on [A] and on.
[E]
[A] If I had only a chance to hear [E] your voice again.
This friend would seem to [A] be a song.
[E]
[A]
Time cues those things.
And years are passing by.
[E] But still I can hear my sister [A] cry.
[D] I've been [E] waiting.
[D]
[A] I didn't want to end wrong.
How I need you now.
I beg you [E] please come home.
[A] If I had only a chance to see [E] your face again.
You'd better call me [A] on and on.
[E]
[A] If I had only a chance to hear [E] your voice again.
This friend would seem to [A] be a song.
[E]
[A] His boat never returned.
[E] It's still missing.
In spite of several search operations, the sails were never found [Bm] again.
[E]
[A] They were certainly lost near [E] Black Bay.
[A] If I had only a chance to hear [E] your voice again.
I'll stand and whisper what seemed to [A] be a song.
