[Verse 1]
A# F C
Farewell, farewell to you who would hear
A# C A#
You lonely travellers all

And the cold north wind will blow again

And will you never return to see

And will you never cut the cloth
A# C A#
Or drink the light to be?
F A# F Dm
And can you never swear a year
A# C A#
To anyone of we?
