I’ll (G) plow you a river all (G) the way to the sea,

So, (G) we can go sailing when (G) you feel the need.

Oh, (C) sail away, sail away, sail (C) away far,

My (G) darling, my princess, my(D) oh, oh, Queen of (G) Calmar.

I’ll (G) sow you an acre of (G) zirconium dust,

So, (G) we can grow diamonds, (G) carrots so rough.

Oh, (C) diamond, oh, diamond my (C) Nor’Way star,

My (G) darling, my princess, my(D) oh, oh, Queen of (G) Calmar.

Sail (C) away, sail away, sail (C) away far,

My (G) darling, my princess, my (G) Nor’Way star.

Oh, (C) sail away, sail away, sail (C) away far,

My (D) darling, my princess, my(C) oh, oh, Queen of (G) Calmar.

I’ll (G) drill you a well to (G) the Epernay mountains,

And (G) then I will build you a (G) Champagne fountain.

Oh, (C) water, oh, water, oh, (C) water of life,

Let me (G) draw you a pitcher, and (G) make you my wife.

Oh, (C) water, oh, water, oh, (C) dottir of Har,

My (D) darling, my princess, my(C) oh, oh, Queen of (G)Calmar.

Sail (C) away, sail away, sail (C) away far,

My (G) darling, my princess, my (G) Nor’Way star.

Oh, (C) sail away, sail away, sail (C) away far,

My (D) darling, my princess, my(C) oh, oh, Queen of (G) Calmar.
