[Verse 1]
CFare thee well, my lovely Dinah,
A thousand times adieu.
For we're going away from the HFoly Ground
And the gCirls we all love truGe.
We will sCail the salt seas over
And then return for shFore
And sCtill I live in hope to see
The HColy GrGound once Cmore.
[Fine Girl You Are]
[Chorus]
You're the gCirl that I adoFre,
And stCill I Amlive in Fhope to C/Esee
the HColy GGround once mCore.
[Fine Girl You Are]
[Verse 2]
CNow when we're out a-sailing
And you are far behind
Fine letters will I wrFite to you
With the sCecrets of my Gmind,
The sCecrets of my mind, my girl,
You're the girl that I aFdore,
And sCtill I live in hope to see
The HColy GGround once Cmore.
[Fine Girl You Are]
[Chorus]
You're the gCirl that I adoFre,
And stCill I Amlive in Fhope to C/Esee
the HColy GGround once mCore.
[Fine Girl You Are]
[Verse 3]
Oh nCow the storm is raging
And we are far from shore;
The poor old ship she's sFinking fast
And the rCiggings they are tGore.
The nCight is dark and dreary,
We can scarcely see the mFoon,
But sCtill I live in hope to see
the HColy GrGound once Cmore.
[Fine Girl You Are]
[Chorus]
You're the gCirl that I adoFre,
And stCill I Amlive in Fhope to C/Esee
the HColy GGround once mCore.
[Fine Girl You Are]
[Verse 4]
And nCow the storm is over
And we are safe and well.
We will go into a pFublic house
And we'll sCit and drink like Ghell.
We will drCink strong ale and porter
And we'll make the rafters rFoar,
And wChen our money is all spent
We will Cgo to Gsea once Cmore.
