PORT OF LONELY HEARTS.

By MrModigh. 

(Written by John R. Cash and Jack Clement).
 

N.C.        D                               
A ship came in but it was empty 
        A                      D
and it sailed back out to sea again.                         
                 D
Now there's the sail on the horizon 
           A                         D
and now I wait until your ship comes in.

             G                             D      
And I'll be waiting in the port of lonely hearts 
 A                               D
watchin' for your topsail on the sea.
    G                              D
Prayin' that my ship of love will come 
        A                                 D
to the port of lonely hearts where I will be.

N.C.            D
I'll brave the storm until you're with me 
                    A                               D
Cause the wind and rain can't change a love that's true.

I'll be alone until you anchor
               A                          D
and then I'll leave this lonely port with you.

               G                             D
Till then I'm waiting in the port of lonely hearts 
 A                                D
watchin' for your topsail on the sea.
    G                              D 
Prayin' that my ship of love will come
        A                                 D
to the port of lonely hearts where I will be.
