[Verse 1]
    C*                    C*       C*                   G
God speed on your journey overseas into the path of the sun
F   C*                        C*                    G                  C*      C*
and while you're away spare a thought for me 'cause I'll be the lonely one.

    C*                  C*            C*                      G
You say that my leaving doesn't mean, we've been together too long.
F       C*                   C*              G                  C
What it does mean however is till your here, I'll be the lonely one.

      F                       C            G                     C
Come away with me, won't you, I can hear a voice in the distance yell
           F                    Em       Am     D                    Gsus4   G
and when I look up to see if it could be you, I see that it's only myself,

[Verse 3]
     C*                 C*             C*                     G
Some say that it's easy to forget, the further it is that you run.
F    C*                 C*                  G                  C
What I'd like to say is when your not here: I'll be the lonely one.

And I won't try and reach you, there's no point, you never return my call.
     F                    Em    Am      D                        Gsus4   G
If I do leave a message I guarantee: it won't be acknowledged at all.
