_ _ _ When I was young and in my prime, [F] and could wander [C] wild and free,
_ There was [G] always a [C] thought within my mind to float [G] above the sea.
[C] So I'd sing [F] farewell [C] to _ Carlingworth, and farewell to [G] _ _ Greenor,
And [C]
think of you [F] both [C] day and night, until I [F]
[G] return once more, [F] until [G] I return [C] once more. _
On all of the seven _ stormy seas I [F] have sailed [C] before the mast,
And the only thought within [Am] my [C] mind I said would be [G] my _ last.
[C] So I'd sing [F] farewell [C] to _ Carlingworth, and farewell to [G] Greenor, _
[C] And think of you both day and night, [Em] [F] until I [G] return once more, [F] until [G] I return [C] once more.
Now I have [F] a girl [C] called Mary [Am] Boyle, [F] she lives [C] in _ Greenor,
And the [G] foremost thought [C] within [Am] her mind [C] is to keep me [G] safe on shore.
[C] So I'd [Am] sing [F] farewell [C] to _ Carlingworth, and farewell to [G] Greenor, _
[C] And think of [F] you both day [C] and night, [F] until I [G] return once _ more, [F] until [G] I return [C] once more.
Al the [F] landman's life [C] is all his, [Em] for he [F] can go or [C] he can stay,
But when the sea gets [Am] in your [C] path, then the tongue you must [G] obey.
_ [C] So I'd [Am] sing [F] farewell [C] to _ Carlingworth, and farewell [G] to _ Greenor,
And [C] think of you both day and night, [F] until I return [G] once more, [F] until [G] I return [C] once more.
So I'd sing [F] farewell [C] to _ Carlingworth, and farewell [G] to Greenor,
[C] And think of you both day and _ [Am] night, [F] until I return [G] once more, [F] until [G] I return [C] once more. _ _
[N] Yes! _ _ _ _
