[Verse 1]
In the Ebyear of '39 assembled Fmhere the Volunteers
In the Dbdays when Ablands were Ebfew
Here the Fmship sailed out into the Dbblue and sunny morn
AbSweetest Ebsight Eb7ever Abseen
And the Ebnight followed day and the Edimstory tellers say
That the Fmscore brave souls insiBbmde
For Abmany a lonely day sailed acrEboss the milky seas
DbNe'er looked Fmback, Fmnever Ebfeared, Eb7never Abcried Eb
[Chorus]
EbDon't you Abhear my call though you're Dbmany years Abaway?
Don't you Abhear me calling Ebyou?
Write your Abletters Edimin the Fmsand Cmfor the Dbday I take your Bbmhand
In the Abland that our EbgrandEb7children Abknew

[Verse 2]
In the Ebyear of '39 came a Fmship in from the blue
The voluntDbeers came Abhome that dayEb
And they Fmbring good news of a worDbld so newly born
Though their Abhearts so EbheavEb7ily weiAbgh
For the EaEbrth is old and grey, little darEdimlin', we'll away
But my Fmlove, this cannot bBbme
For so Abmany years are gone though I'm Ebolder but a year
Your Dbmother's Fmeyes Fmfrom your Ebeyes Eb7cry to Abme Eb
[Chorus]
EbDon't you Abhear my call though you're Dbmany years aAbway?
Don't you Abhear me calling Ebyou?
Write your Abletters Edimin the Fmsand Cmfor the Dbday I take your Bbmhand
In the Abland that our EbgrandEb7children Abknew Eb

EbDon't you Abhear my call though you're Dbmany years aAbway?
Don't you Abhear me calling Ebyou?
All your Abletters Edimin the Fmsand Cmcannot Dbheal me like your Bbmhand
For my Ablife, still ahEbead,
