[F] [C] [F] She's [C] leaving, [F]
[C] she's leaving [F] She's on the ship [Bb] now and leaving
[F] Standing by the gangway [C] tossing streamers over
[Bb] I find it kinda hard [F] believing Deceiving,
[C] deceiving
[F] My subtle game [Bb] of deceiving [F] Standing here and waving, blowing [C] kisses
and behaving like [Bb] it doesn't matter much to see [F] her leaving
I don't know what, I don't know who I don't know [Bb] where she's [F] going to
I only know she's going [C] out of my life Across a sea of waving hands and Colonel
Billy's farewell band I watch the disappearing face [F] of my wife
And I'm doing all I can to hide [Bb] the sad confusion of [F] my mind
And embrace myself with every [C] trick I know But though my lips are beating time
To the words of old Angus Hine My voice keeps on defiant
Brian Bonny, [F] please don't go [Bb] Oh, [F] that fool in me, [C] persuading me
To [F] hide the broken pieces [Bb] of my dignity [F] What a simple reassuring word [C] just to reach
out and comfort [Bb] her Was all I had to say to [F] keep her here with
me I don't know what, I don't know who
I don't [Bb] know where she's [F] going to I only know she's going [C] out of my life
Across a sea of waving hands and Colonel Billy's farewell band
I watch the [F] disappearing face of my wife And I'm doing all I can to hide the [Bb] sad confusion
[F] of my mind And embrace myself with every [C] trick I know
But though my lips are beating time To the words of old Angus Hine
My voice keeps on defiant Brian Bonny, [F] please don't go
[Bb]
Oh, [F] yes, she's leaving [C] She's leaving
[F] She's on the ship [Bb] now, and leaving [F] Standing by the gangway, [C] passing streamers
over me [Bb] I find it kind of hard [F] to believe in this scene
[C] This scene [F] Oh, my son, again
