Verse 1
G
C
On a summer day when
F
the waves were ruffled
C
G
by the softest, gentlest breeze
C
F
Did a ship set sail with her cargo laden
C
G
C
for a port beyond the seas
There were sweet farewells,
F
there were loving signals
C
G
while her form was yet desert
C
And for years and years
F
there were fond ones
C
G
Watching for the ship that never returned
C
Did she ever return?
F
No, she never returned
C
G
And her fate is yet unlearned
C
And for years and years
F
there were fond ones
C
G
Watching for the ship that nev
C
G
C
G
er returned
C
F
Said a feeble lad to his anxious mother,
C
G
I must cross the wide, sea
C
For they say perchance in
F
a foreign country
C
G
C
There is health and strength for me
F
Was a gleam of hope in a maze of danger
C
G
And her heart for her youngest year
C
Yet she sent him forth with a smile
F
C
And a blessing on the ship
G
C
that never returned
Did she ever return?
F
No, she never returned
C
G
And her fate is yet unlearned
C
And for years and years
F
there were fond ones
C
watching for the ship that
G
C
G
C
G
never returned
C
Just one more trip,
F
said the gallant captain
C
G
as he kissed his weeping wife
C
F
Just one more bag of the golden treasure
C
G
C
and to last us all our life
F
Then we'll settle down in a cozy cottage
C
G
and enjoy the rest we've earned
C
F
But alas, poor man, he sailed commander
C
G
C
on the ship that never returned
Did she ever return?
F
Oh, she never returned
C
G
and her fate is yet unlearned
C
And for years and years
F
there were fond ones
C
G
C
watching for the ship that never returned.
