Kids' eyes are popping as Amthey take in her sizeE  
Champagne bottle exAmplodes on her side
FShe slips in the water, then aCway with the Amtide
ToEmorrow the sorrow beAmgins
[Chorus]
GWaving as the last ship Csails from the TyneG  
I helped to build her, so, Cpart of her's EmineF  
Sailing away with my Chopes G/Band my Amdreams
ToEmorrow the sorrow beAmginsE  Am
