[Verse 1]
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 out
into the [C]blue and sunny morn
[D]Sweetest sight ever [G]seen
And the [D]night followed day
And the [B]story tellers say
That the [Em]score brave souls in[Am]side
For [G]many a lonely day
sailed [D]across the milky seas
[C]Ne'er looked [Em]back, [C]never [D]feared,
[C]never [G]cried[D]

[Chorus 1]
Don't you [G]hear my call
though you're [C]many years [G]away
Don't you [G]hear me calling [D]you
Write your [G]letters [B]in the [Em]sand
[D]For the [C]day I [G]take your [Am]hand
In the [G]land that our [D]grandchildren [G]knew

[Verse 2]
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 news
of a [C]world so newly born
Though their [D]hearts so heavily [G]weight
For the [D]earth is old and grey,
little [B]darling, we'll away
But my [Em]love, this cannot [Am]be
Oh, so [G]many years have gone
though I'm [D]older but a year
Your [C]mother's [Em]eyes, [C]from your [D]eyes,
[C]cry to [G]me[D]

[Chorus 2]
Don't you [G]hear my call
though you're [C]many years [G]away
Don't you [G]hear me calling [D]you
Write your [G]letters [B]in the [Em]sand
[D]For the [C]day I [G]take your [Am]hand
In the [G]land that our [D]grandchildren [G]knew[D]

[Chorus 3]
Don't you [G]hear my call
though you're [C]many years [G]away
Don't you [G]hear me calling [D]you
All your [G]letters [B]in the [Em]sand
[D]cannot [C]heal me [G]like your [Am]hand
For my [Em]life
Still a[D]head

[Outro 1]
Pity me
