When you see that ship, it is the ship you can’t see 
                   A5                         G5 
When the grey ship calls, it is a-callin’ for me 
                    A5      G5 
I thought it would come 
                   A5                           G5 
I thought it would come from further north than that 
 
G5          A5                  G5 
Blue sky is silver, blue sky is grey 
                    A5                  G5 
When the grey ship calls, I am leaving today

All of that calling is calling for me 
                   A5 
I thought it would come 
G5                  A5
