[Verse 1]
F
Waves crash
Gm

Endless blue on the horizon
Gm

Figures send their goodbyes to the
F
Fishing trawler meets the other
Gm
Ships in consort as they leave the
Bb
Sea port

[Chorus]
F                       Gm
Here, here in Agincourt Bay
C                               Bb       C

[Verse 2]

C7
That is the way things have always been

Gm
The waves

Boats sunk

F                       Gm
Here, here in Agincourt Bay
C                                Bb       C
People watch the boats drifting away, away, away
