[C#]
[F#] So it's finally come, [C#] you have left this world [G#] But we'll miss our king, [C#m] our darling girl
We [F#] held your hand, [C#m] kissed your lovely brow [G#] And bid farewell
[C#m] You're sailing now, free [A#m] from the pain You [G#] laid that burden down
[C#m] But [F#] your strong and giving heart [G#] will surely be your crown
[C#m] As you slip the surly bonds of [G#] earth and sail away
[C#m] [A#m] Perhaps we will meet [G#] again somehow, someday [F#] Until then, there's nothing [C#] we can do but
wait [G#] To see once more [C#] our darling king
[F#]

[C#]
All [F#] those nights we sang, [C#] talked till the sun come up
[G#] You fed our souls, [C#] you filled our cup With your [F#]
perfect words
[C#] And oh that voice, [G#] we fell in love [C#] We had no choice
[A#m] And I can't say [G#] for sure where you have gone [F#] But in that place, [G#] I'm betting there's a better song
But [C#] we've [F#] all known down here the [C#] taste of joy and strife
[G#] You were the sweetest note [C#m] in the chord of life
Now you've slipped the surly bonds of earth [G#] and sailed away
[A#m] Perhaps we will meet [G#] again somehow, someday [C#] [F#] But if there was one name [C#] I could consecrate
[G#] It would be yours, [C#m] it would [C#] be Kate
[D#]
[F#] So it's finally come, [C#] you have left this world [G#] But we'll miss our king, [C#m] our darling girl
