I [D] hear the [A7] sound, of distant [D] drums
Far a-[A7]way, far a-[D]way
And if they [A7] call, for me to [D] come
Then [G] I must [D] go, and [A7] you must [D] stay
{soc}
          So Mary marry me; [D7] let's not [G] wait
          Let's share [A] all the time we [A7] can before it's too [D] late
          Love me now, for now is [D7] all the time there may [G] be
          If you [A] love me Mary, [A7] Mary marry [D] me
{eoc}
I [D] hear the [A7] sound, of bugles [D] blow
Far a-[A7]way, far a-[D]way
And if they [A7] call, then I must [D] go
A-[G]cross the [D] sea, so [A7] wild and [D] grey
{soc}
          So Mary marry me; [D7] let's not [G] wait
          For the [A] distant drums might [A7] change our wedding [D] date
          And love me now for now is [D7] all the time there may [G] be
          If you [A] love me Mary, [A7] Mary marry [D] me
{eoc}
I hear the [A7] sound, of distant [D] drums
Far a-[A7]way, far a-[D]way
And if they [A7] call, for me to [D] come
Then [G] I must [D] go, and [A7] you must [D] stay
{soc}
          So Mary marry me; [D7] let's not [G] wait
          For the [A] distant drums might [A7] change our wedding [D] date
          And love me now for now is [D7] all the time there may [G] be
          If you [A] love me Mary, [A7] Mary marry [D] me
