Capo 1
Intro G
G D7 G
There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbor
G7 C
tomorrow for old England she sails
Am C
far away from your land of endless sunshine
Am7 D7
to my land full of rainy skies and gales
G D7 G
and I shall be on aboard that ship tomorrow
G7 C
though my heart is full of tears at this farewell
Chorus:
Am Bm D G Em Am D7
For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly
Am7 D7 G
more dearly than the spoken word can tell
Am Bm D G Em Am D7
for you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly
Am7 D7 G
more dearly than the spoken word can tell
Verse#2
G D7 G
I heard there's a wicked war a blazing
G7 C
and the taste of war I know so very well
Am C
Even now I see that foreign flag a raising
Am7 D7
their guns on fire as we sailed into hell
G D7 G
I have no fear of death it brings no sorrow
G7 C
but how bitter will be this last farewell
Chorus:
Am Bm D G Em Am D7
For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly
Am7 D7 G
more dearly than the spoken word can tell
Am Bm D G Em Am D7
for you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly
Am7 D7 G
more dearly than the spoken word can tell
Verse#3:
G D7 G
Though death and darkness gather all about me
G7 G
and my ship be torn apart upon the sea
Am C
I shall smell again the fragrance of these islands
Am7 D7
in the heaving waves that brought me once to thee
G D7 G
and should I return safe home again to England
G7 C
I shall watch the English mist roll through the dale
Chorus:
Am Bm D G Em Am D7
For you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly
Am7 D7 G
more dearly than the spoken word can tell
Am Bm D G Em Am D7
for you are beautiful and I have loved you dearly
Am7 D7 G
more dearly than the spoken word can tell
