Intro: [Am7] - [Bm7] - [C] - [D]

[VERSE 1]
[G]Just out in the harbour, [Em]all the ships asleep
[Am]Maybe one cold watchman, [C]walks a lonely [D]beat
And [G]way out on the water, a [Em]ship is under sail
[Am]Leaving wavy starlight, and a [C]dreamer in her [D]trail

[CHORUS]
I [G]wave bye [Em]bye, I [Am]pray, God [D]speed
Oh I [G]wish, lovely [Em]weather, more [Am]luck than you [D]need
You'll [G]only [Bm7]sail in [Am7]circles, [C]so there's no need to [Am7]cry [D]
No, [G]I'll see [Bm7]you, [G]again one [Em7]day,[Am7] and then I [D]wave bye [G]bye

[VERSE 2]
The [G]sailing ship reminds me, [Em]of a certain girl
Who [Am]left a certain dreamer, to [C]sail into the [D]world
I've [G]very friendly post-cards, from [Em]very far away
[Am]But they just remind me, [C]of a certain [D]day

[CHORUS]

I [G]wave, bye [Em]bye, I [Am]pray, God [D]speed
I [G]wish, lovely [Em]weather, with more [Am]luck, than you [D]need
You'll [G]only [Bm7]sail in [Am7]circles, [C]so there's no need to [Am7]cry [D]
No [G]I'll, see [Bm7]you, [G]again one [Em7]day, [Am7]then I [D]waved bye [G]bye
[G]Bye bye
