[A]
[F#] I'm sailing away, my old true [E] love
[D] [A]
I'm [F#] sailing away in the morning
[D] Is [A]
there something I can [F#] bring you from [A] across the sea?
[D]
[A] From [F#] the place that [E] I'll be [A] landing
Now
[E] there's nothing you can bring me, my [E] old true love
[D] [A]
[F#] There's nothing I'm [E] wishing to be [D] owning
[A]
[F#m] Just carry yourself back to me [A] unspoiled
[D] [A] [F#] From across [E] that [A] lonesome ocean
Oh, [F#] but I just thought you might want something fine
[D] [A]
Maybe [F#] silver [E]
or of golden
[D] [A]
[F#] Either from [F#m] the mountains [A] of Madrid
[D] [A] Or [F#] from the coast [E] of [A] Barcelona
[E] Oh, but if I had the stars of the darkest [D] night
[A]
And [F#] the diamonds of [E] the deepest [A] ocean
[D] [A] I'd [F#] forsake them all for [F#m] your [A] sweet kiss
[D] [A] [F#] That's all [E] I'm wishing [A] to be [D] owning
[A] Oh, [E] [A]
[F#] but I might be gone a long, old time
[D] And [A]
[F#] it's only [E]
that [A] I'm asking
[D] [A] Is [F#] there something I can send you [A] to remember me by?
[D]
To [A] [F#] make your time [E] more [A] easy passing
How
[E] can, how can you ask me again?
[D]
[A] [F#] It only [E] brings me [A] sorrow
[A] The [F#m] same thing I would want [A] today
[D] [A]
[F#] I would want [E]
again [A] tomorrow
Oh, [F#] I got a letter on [E] a lonesome day
[D]
[A] It [F#] was from her [E] shippy sailing
[D]
[A] Saying [F#]
I don't know [F#m] when I'll be coming [F#m]
back again
[D] [A] It
[F#] depends on [E]
how I'm [A] feeling
[E] And [A]
[F#] if you, my love, must think [A] that way
[D]
I'm [A] [F#] sure your [E] mind [A] is roaming
[D]
[F#] I'm sure your [F#m] thoughts are not [A] with me
[D] [A]
But with [E] the country to where [A] you're going
[E]
[A] So take [E] heed, take heed of the western [A] wind
[D]
[E] Take heed [F#] of the [A] stormy weather
[D]
And [A] [F#] yes, there's something you [F#m] can send back to [A] me
[D] Send [F#] me boots of [G#m]
Spanish [D] leather
