We were [Am] going to see [D] the world in this land we placed

And are you going?
and where
Where are you going send me a letter?
if you go at all
the salvation of souls

These people had neither king nor lord and [Bm] bowed to no one
They [D] have lived in their own liberty

Saw the new the inconstant shiftings of fortune
