[Verse 1]
FThere's a ship lies riggCed and ready in the hFarbor
FTomorrow for Old England she sBbails
BbFar away from your land of endless sunshine
BbTo my land full of rainy sGkies and galCes
FAnd I shall be abCoard that ship tomoFrrow
FThough my heart is full of tears at this fBbarewell
[Chorus]
GFor youC are beAautifDul, I Ghave loved you dCearly
GMore dearly than the spoCken word can tFell D
GFor youC are beAautifuDl, I haGve loved you deaCrly
GMore dearly than the spCoken word can tFell C F C F
[Verse 2]
FI've heard there's a wiCcked war a-blFazing
FAnd the taste of war I know so very Bbwell
BbEven now I see that foreign flag a-raising
BbTheir guns on firGe as we sail into HeCll
FI have no fear of dCeath, it brings no soFrrow
FBut how bitter will be this last faBbrewell
[Chorus]
GFor youC are beAautifDul, I Ghave loved you dCearly
GMore dearly than the spoCken word can tFell D
GFor youC are beAautifuDl, I haGve loved you deaCrly
GMore dearly than the spoCken word can teFll C F C F
[Verse 3]
FThough death and darkness gathCer all about Fme
FAnd my ship be torn apart upon the Bbseas
BbI shall smell again the fragrance of these islands
BbAnd the heaving waves that brouGght me once to tChee
FAnd should I return safe homeC again to EngFland
FI shall watch the English mist roll through the DAbale
[Chorus]
GFor youC are beAautifDul, I Ghave loved you dCearly
GMore dearly than the spoCken word can tFell D
GFor youC are beAautifuDl, I haGve loved you deaCrly
GMore dearly than the spoCken word can teFll C F Ab F
