The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm alone with all my sorrow it's so hard to face tomorrow
Cause I knocked and no one met me at the door
I have asked the next door neighbor what you packed and went away for
But they only say you don't live here no more
When I sailed across the blue I thought I could count on you
But I've come back home sweetheart to find you've gone
It's a shame you couldn't be here what a sorry sight to see here
When a soldier knocks and finds nobody home
[ guitar ]
When I sailed across the blue...
