THE LAST FAREWELL
by Roger Whittaker & A. Webster.
D A7 D D7 G>Em
There' a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbour, Tomorrow for old England she sails,
G>Em A7
far away from your land of endless sunshine to my land full of rainy skies and gales;
D A7 D D7 G>Em
and I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow, though my heart is full of tears at this farewell;
Em7 A7 F#m7 Bm7 Em7 A7
Ch For you are beautiful, and I have loved you dearly
Em7 A7 D
more dearly than the spoken word can tell;
Em7 A7 F#m7 Bm7 Em7 A7
And you are beautiful, and I have loved you dearly
Em7 A7 D
more dearly than the spoken word can tell;
D A7 D D7 G>Em
V.2.I heard there's a wicked war a-blazing, and the taste of war I know so very well,
G>Em A7
Even now I see the foreign flag a-raising, their guns on fire as we sail into hell;
D A7 D D7 G>Em
I have no fear of death it brings no sorrow, but how bitter will be this. last farewell
Ch
D A7 D D7 G>Em
Though death and darkness gather all about me, and my ship be torn apart upon the sea,
G>Em
I shall smell again the fragrance of these Islands,and the heaving waves that brough me
A7
once to thee;
D A7 D D7
should I return safe home again to England, I shall watch the English mist roll through
the dell; G>Em
