1. Lady love, go back to sleep,
           B              F
   Dry the tears from your eyes,
         D                A
   But I cannot stay with thee
             C
   Until the morning,
           B
   For the dawn is breaking,
          D                   A
   And my ship is waiting for me,
              B
   And I must go,
               F
   But I'll be back, yes,
   B                  C
   Before this year is over;
   
2. So we sailed across the sea,
   Till we found America,
   'Round the Cape of Storms
   We set our sails for home,
   And when the sea was roaring
   And the Lord I called
   To help my drowning men,              
   I saw the light, yes, 
   the candle in your window...
   
       F                  B
3. And I have brought you silver,
   And I have brought you gold,
       F               B            D    C
   And spices from the Indies in the hold
             F              B
   I've seen ships on the horizon,
   That I'd swear were going down,
   But now I know for certain,
                D     C
   The world is round,
          B       C         F
   I have seen, my eyes have seen.
   
4. One day says Galileo,
   A man will reach the sky,
   And see the world completely, from outside,
   And gazing down from younder,
   On a world of blue and green,
   He'll say with eyes of wonder,
   I have seen, I have seen,
   My eyes have seen.
          B
   I have seen,
      D         D
   My eyes have seen.
