[Verse 1]
       Em       Em     D        G    C G G
Oh I'm sailin' away my own true love
    Em      D           G       C G G
I'm sailin' away in the morning
         Em              Em             D         G    C G G
Is there something I can send you from across the sea
         Em    D            G         C G G
From the place that I'll be landing?


[Verse 2]
            Em              Em          D        G    C G G
No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
        Em        D          G       C G G
There's nothin' I wish to be ownin'
     Em        Em           D    G        C G G
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
      Em         D        G       C G G
From across that lonesome ocean


[Verse 3]
        Em                 Em         D         G    C G G
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
        Em     D     G       C G G
Made of silver or of golden
       Em       Em        D    G    C G G
Either from the mountains of Madrid
   Em       D             G    C G G
Or from the coast of Barcelona


[Verse 4]
        Em           Em             D       G     C G G
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night
        Em                D       G       C G G
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
       Em        Em      D          G    C G G
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
           Em       D            G      C G G
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'


[Verse 5]
       Em       Em     D        G    C G G
That I might be gone a long old time
         Em   D        G       C G G
And it's only that I'm askin'
         Em              Em            D         G    C G G
Is there something I can send you to remember me by
             Em        D     G        C G G
To make your time more easy  passin'?


[Verse 6]
    Em       Em          D       G    C G G
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again
   Em   D         G       C G G
It only brings me sorrow
    Em   Em            D       G    C G G
The same thing I would want today
        Em    D      G        C G G
I would want again tomorrow


[Verse 7]
     Em    Em          D        G    C G G
Oh I got a letter on a lonesome day
       Em       D      G       C G G
It was from her ship a-sailin'
       Em      Em                D            G    C G G
Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
     Em       D       G        C G G
It depends on how I'm feelin'


[Verse 8]
    Em     Em         D            G    C G G
If you, my love, must think that-a-way
    Em        D       G       C G G
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
    Em        Em           D        G    C G G
I'm sure your thoughts are not with me
             Em         D            G        C G G
But with the country to where you're goin'


[Verse 9]
        Em         Em          D       G    C G G
So take heed, take heed of the western wind
     Em          D      G       C G G
Take heed of the stormy weather
    Em            Em               D            G    C G G
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
        Em       D       G        C G G
