_ [F] _ _ for a tall ship came [Bb] to windward away
on a grey [Eb] Atlantic morning.
_ [Gm] She showed [F] no light, [Bb] sore _ collars in the hour before the [Ebm] dawning.

_ _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] Her course [F] was set [Gm] by [Bb] destiny, and no helmsman's hand [Eb] could change her.
[Gm] We hailed [Fm] her, and [Bb] we signaled, you are [F] standing [Eb] into danger.
[Bb] But she left [F] us free [Bb] on the westerly, and I watched her [Eb] pale sail sinking,
[Gm] and if [Bb] only [Gm] I was upon [Eb] her, _ _ _ _ [Bb] it [Cm] was [A] all the time [Eb] I was thinking. _
