In the year of '39 assembled here the volunteers
       C             G          D7
In the days when the lands were few
         Em          G            C
Here the ship sailed out into the blue and sunny morn
    G        D7         G
The sweetest sight ever seen
        D7
And the night followed day
        Cdim
And the story tellers say
         Em                Am
That the score brave souls inside
    G                         D7
For many a lonely day sailed across the milky seas
             C           D7            G     D7
Ne'er looked back, never feared, never cried

          G                          C           G
Don't you hear my call though you're many years away
          G               D7
Don't you hear me calling you
           G       Bm     Em   D6      C     Bm        Am
Write your letters in the sand for the day I take your hand
       Bm            D7            G
In the land that our grandchildren knew

       D7                 Em
In the year of '39 came a ship in from the blue
         C          G         D7
The volunteers came home that day
         Em         G         C
And they bring good news of a world so newly born
             G         D7      G
Though their hearts so heavily weigh
        D7                            Cdim
For the Earth is old and grey, little darlin' we'll away
       Em               Am
But my love this cannot be
       G                               D7
For so many years have gone though I'm older but a year
              C              D7          G   D7
Your mother's eyes from your eyes cry to me

          G                          C          G  
Don't you hear my call though you're many years away
          G               D7
Don't you hear me calling you
           G       Bm     Em   D6      C     Bm        Am
Write your letters in the sand for the day I take your hand
       Bm            D7            G
In the land that our grandchildren knew  [Downward stroke G 4x]
          G                          C          G
Don't you hear my call though you're many years away
          G               D7
Don't you hear me calling you
         G       Bm     Em   D6     C       Bm        A7
All your letters in the sand cannot heal me like your hand
       Em7
For my life
       D7
Still ahead
     G
Pity me
