[G] We're bound away upon the [C] tide
[G] To leave our friends behind in us
[Bm] Pull anchor [D] chains and slip [C] away

In the [G] dreary troubled ocean
And the whale [C] has bathed [D] her last
[Em] With sea birds [D] left to breed her
[Am] The hostile [Bm] [C] sailor's a [D] stay for all
For it's time for [G] us to leave
