[Intro] C C G C [Verse 1]
            C               Em
My love has gone across the sea

          Am   F            C
To find a coun--try far and fair

            C             Em
He sailed into the gilded west

           Am  F            G
And lo, my heart will never rest

         G       Am      F
Until my love returns to me

         C      G        C
Or I set out to find him there.
[Verse 2]
                C               Em
Come home, come home, I sing to thee

              Am  F               C
My love, come ho--me and rest thy head

               C              Em
I'll watch for you the winter long

             Am  F          C
And sing for you-- a summer song

           G        Am     F
And if you can't return to me

            C       G   C
Then I will sail to you instead.
[Bridge] C Em Am F C C Em Am F G G Am F C G C [Verse 3]
                 C                  Em
Through tow'ring wave and shriek of gale

            Am  F         C
I'll aim my ve--ssel ever west

             C                Em
And steer it by the cord that bound

            Am  F               G
My heart to you--rs, until you're found

               C            Em
And should you find my body, pale

              Am     F     G
And wrecked upon the loamy shale

            G         Am      F
Rejoice, my love, and call me blessed!

            C      Em        Am
In death, my love, I loved you best

            C                 Em
Rejoice, my love, and call me blessed!

            Am  F                C
In death, my lo--ve, I loved you best
[Outro] C Em Am F C
