[Intro] Em Bm Em Bm [Verse 1]
Em                        Bm
   Lady you are my peace of mind

Em                                  Bm
   Were I to seek your par none I could find

Em                          Bm
   You delicately went to curry land

C          Am
And left a lonely man

            Em   EmM7  G
Ah me yogi blue

G                           A
He thought to himself as he sat before

C               D            B          Em
    His stocks and shares a dreadful bore

G                           A
    If I'm to live another happy day

C               D           B        Em
    I best make haste and be on my way
[Verse 2] Bm
Em                                  Bm
    He at his desk did write and indicate

Em                          Bm
    To lawyer friend and intimate

Em                              Bm
    His lamentable grief did necessitate

               C        Am                    Em   EmM7  G
The need for one swift bird to sail the ocean o'er

G                                 A
A sailing schooner was soon seen sailing

C               D           B      Em
    Swift and silent around the sound

G                           A
    Salutating seagulls heralding

C                   D         B        Em
    The wonderous transport upon the wing
[Verse 3] Bm Em Bm
Em                                  Bm
    Twenty days from Goa they did espie

Em                                  Bm
    A wealthy merchant bound for Arabi-iy

Em
    Exchanging greetings

Bm
Had he heard the news

        A
The Lady Hall had drowned

                       Em EmM7 G
The price of Ninevah rose

G                                   A
Storms and tempests his shattered mind beset

C                 D         B        Em
    Hurricanes of pains raged and tore

G                               A
Truly drowned in grief he did repair

C                   D        B          Em   Bm
    To haunted trinkets and gross despair
[Verse 4] Em Bm
Em
    All in white neath shade

Bm
    In bamboo chair

Em                          Bm
    Military disipline has replaced despair

Em                          Bm
    Anchored in the bay of innocence

Am              C
    Is left a lonely man

Am                 Em   EmM7  G
Lonely through and through
Em Bm
