Follows the version of the song found here: E7 is fingered like so: E 0 A 2 D 2 G 1 B 3 e 0 [Intro] A [Verse]
       A
Outward bound, upon a ship that sails no ocean

       E7                                A
Outward bound, it has no crew but me and you
All alone, when just a minute ago the shore
                E7                          A
Was filled with people, with people that we knew
[Verse 2]
       A
Outward bound upon a journey without ending

       E7                                   A
Outward bound, uncharted waters beneath our bow
Far behind, the green familiar shore is fading
     E7                         A
Into time, and time has left us now
[Chorus 1]
       E7                             A
So farewell, adieu, so long, vaya con Dios

         E7                             A
May they find whatever they are looking for
Remember when the wine was better than ever again
              E7                        A
We could not ask, we could not ask for more
[Verse 3]
       A
Outward bound, upon a ship with tattered sail

       E7                                A
Outward bound, along a crooked, lonesome trail
Things we learn, we'll just be satisfied in knowing
    E7                                  A
And we'll tell it to our kids as a fairy tale
[Chorus 2]
       E7                             A
So farewell, adieu, so long, vaya con Dios

         E7                             A
May they find whatever they are looking for
Remember when the wine was better than ever again
              E7                        A
We could not ask, we could not ask for more

              E7                        A
We could not ask, we could not ask for more
