C (x32010@1)                       AmNow (x02210@1)I had a notion, while crossing the ocean,

Alternative "Farewell" Chorus

I'm going back home next week way over the foam, to the other side of the world,
Such nice people I've met I shall leave with regret, for the other side of the world,
And though the rations are short, but all the food that you've brought, have helped to 
keep the old banner unfurled,
So to you my thanks I'm tending for the parcels you've been sending, to the other side 
of the world

Alternative "Farewell" Chorus

I'm going back home next week way over the foam, to the other side of the world,
Such nice people I've met I shall leave with regret, for the other side of the world,
And though the rations are short, but all the food that you've brought, have helped to 
keep the old banner unfurled,
So to you my thanks I'm tending for the parcels you've been sending, to the other side 
of the world
