[Verse 1]
GCGEm
The seagulls are calling, and the wind is in the sails,
GCD
And she's fast moving out to the sea,
GCGEm
On a ship bound for St.John three thousand miles away,
GCG
A human cargo my comrades and me.
[Chorus]
GCGD
Farewell my Green valleys God keep you the same,
GCD
If in only my mind you will be,
GCGEm
I'm sailing dark waters, to far America,
GCG
Never more my Green valleys to see.
[Verse 2]
GCGEm
It hurts me to think of the things I left behind,
GCD
And the famine has blackened our land
GCGEm
And to look now for something,that I may never find,
GCG
Is a problim that's closer to hand.
[Chorus]
GCGD
Farewell my Green valleys God keep you the same,
GCD
If in only my mind you will be,
GCGEm
I'm sailing dark waters, to far America,
GCG
Never more my Green valleys to see.
[Verse 3]
GCGEm
There's a fever a raging,and the wind has died away,
GCD
And the jorney can no longer be,
GCGEm
And the plague is a shadow,that lingers night and day,
GCG
And more thoughts of Green valleys I'll see
[Chorus]
GCGD
Farewell my Green valleys God keep you the same,
GCD
If in only my mind you will be,
GCGEm
I'm sailing dark waters, to far America,
GCG
Never more my Green valleys to see.
