Somewhere- beyond the sea,
Bb C7 F A7/E Dm
Somewhere waiting for me,

My lover stands on golden sands
Gm C7 C#dim Dm Bb G7 C
And watches the ships that go sailing.

She's there watching for me.

I know- beyond a doubt

My heart will lead me there soon-

We'll meet- beyond the shore

And never again I'll go sailing
