[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Oh I'm sailin' away my own true love
Em9 Em | G C | G |
I'm sailin' away in the morning
Em C | G C | G |
Is there something I can send you from across the sea
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
From the place that I'll be landing?
[Verse 2]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
There's nothin' I wish to be ownin'
Em C | G C | G |
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G | % |
From across that lonesome ocean
[Verse 3]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Made of silver or of golden
Em C | G C | G |
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
Or from the coast of Barce - lona
[Verse 4]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
Em C | G C | G |
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G | % |
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'
[Verse 5]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
That I might be gone a long old time
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
And it's only that I'm askin'
Em C | G C | G |
Is there something I can send you to remember me by
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
To make your time more easy passin'?
[Verse 6]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
It only brings me sorrow
Em C | G C | G |
The same thing I would want today
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
I would want again tomorrow
[Verse 7]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Oh I got a letter on a lonesome day
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
It was from her ship a-sailin'
Em C | G C | G |
Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
It depends on how I'm feelin'
[Verse 8]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
If you, my love, must think that-a-way
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
Em C | G C |
I'm sure your thoughts are not with me
Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
But with the country to where you're goin'
[Verse 9]
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Em9 D7 | G C | G |
Take heed of the stormy weather
Em C | G C | G |
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
G Em9 D7 C G D7 | G |
Spanish boots o-o-of Spa-a-nish leather
