[Verse 2]
[A]thee well, my own[G] true lov[D]e

I have [D]sailed with Burgess [G]once [D]before
He's a man that I know right [A]well
If [D]a man is a sailor,
he can [G]get [D]along
And if nothin' he [A]is sure in [D]Hell

[Verse 6]
So [A]fare thee well, my [G]own true [D]love
And when I return united we will [A]be
It's not the [D]leaving of

[D]
Now the sun is on the [G]harbour, [D]love
And I wish I could re[A]main
For I [D]know it will be a [G]long, [D]long time
Before I see [A]you [D]again
Here we go!

[Verse 8]
So [A]fare thee well, my [G]own true [D]love

It's not the [D]leaving of
Liverpool that [G]grieves [D]me
But my darling when I [A]think of [D]thee

[Verse 9]
So [A]fare thee well, my [G]own true [D]love
And when I return united we will [A]be
It's not the [D]leaving of
