[G] In the [D] year of '39 assembled [Em] here the Volunteers
In the [C] days when [G] lands were [D] few
Here the [Em] ship sailed [G] out into the [C] blue and sunny morn
The [Em] sweetest [D] sight ever [G] seen.
And the [D] night followed day, and the [B7] story tellers say
That the [Em] score brave [Bm] souls in-[C]side
For [G] many a lonely day sailed a-[D]cross the milky seas
Never looked [Em] back, never [D] feared, never [G] cried. [D]
Don't you [G] hear my call though you're [C] many years a-[G]way
Don't you hear me calling [D] you
Write your [Em] letters [Bm] in the [C] sand
[G] For the [C] day I [G] take your [Am] hand
In the [G] land that our [D] grandchildren [G] knew.
[G] In the [D] year of '39 came a [Em] ship in from the blue
The volun-[C]teers came [G] home that [D] day
And they [Em] bring good [G] news of a [C] world so newly born
Though their [Em] hearts so [D] heavily [G] weigh
{c: }
For the [D] earth is old and grey, little [B7] darling we'll away
But my [Em] love this [Bm] cannot [C] be
For so [G] many years have gone though I'm [D] older but a year
Your mother's [Em] eyes from your [D] eyes cry to [G] me. [D]
{c: }
Don't you [G] hear my call though you're [C] many years a-[G]way
Don't you hear me calling [D] you
Write your [Em] letters [Bm] in the [C] sand
[G] For the [C] day I [G] take your [Am] hand
In the [G] land that our [D] grandchildren [G] knew.
{c: }
[D] Don't you [G] hear my call though you're [C] many years a-[G]way
Don't you hear me calling [D] you
All [Em] your letters [Bm] in the [C] sand
[G] cannot [C] heal me [G] like your [Am] hand
{c: }
For my [Em] life, still a-[D]head
Pity [G] Me. (Pause 3) [G]/ [D]/ [Em]/ [C]/[G]/ [D]/ [G] ///
