Capo: 7th fret 
      

      C            G           Am     C 
The hands on the clock keep turning round 
      F                        C 
They point to the time of the day. 
      C          G           Am        C 
The time means nothing with you by my side 
         F                      C 
Though some time I'll be on my way. 


[Refrão]
  Am       C                      
Down the road to where I must go, 
           F                     C 
There's nothing between you and me. 
       C      G             Am       C 
I'll take a boat down the river, my love 
      F               C 
And sail away to the sea. 
       F               C 
I'll sail away to the sea. 

What will you take to remember me by? 
I've no money to buy you a smile. 
I can't say the words to bid you farewell, 
So I'll carry them with me a while. 

You'll wave goodbye 'till I pass out of sight 
As you're waving goodbye for good. 
I can't even take you part of the way 
I only wish that I could.
