Dm
1. My lover's gone
                C      C/H   Dm
   his boots no longer by my door
   he left at dawn
            C       C/H      Dm
   and as I slept I felt him go
   Returns no more
              C         C/H
   I will not watch the ocean
   Dm
   My lover's gone
              C          C/H  F         G     Dm
   no earthly ships will ever bring him home again
   F         G     Dm
   bring him home again

2. My lover's gone
   I know that kiss will be my last
   no more his song
   the tune upon his lips has passed
   I sing alone
   while I watch the ocean
   My lover's gone
                                                  Dm2
   no earthly ships will ever bring him home again
   bring him home again
