           F  Bb      F            C7              F 
          Now is the hour,    When we must say goodbye 
           Bb             F   Dm      G              C   C7 
          Soon you'll be sail-ing,   Far across the sea 
            F     Bb    F            C7           F 
          While you're away,    Oh, Then remember me 
           Bb        F                 Dm      G    C   F 
          When you return,     You'll find me wait-ing here 


      F     C7                Dm   F  Bb              C7         F 
    Sunset glow fades in the west,   Night o'er the valley is creeping 
     Dm           A7            Bb  D7 G                          C    C7 
    Birds cuddle down in their nest,  Soon all the world will be sleep-ing 


           F  Bb      F            C7              F 
          Now is the hour,    When we must say goodbye 
           Bb             F   Dm      G              C   C7 
          Soon you'll be sail-ing,   Far across the sea 
            F     Bb    F            C7           F 
          While you're away,    Oh, Then remember me 
           Bb        F                 Dm      G    C   F 
          When you return,     You'll find me wait-ing here
