FIRST TAB - feedback and corrections are welcomed! I love this melody, so I worked it out by ear. I get the feeling it should possibly involve some No.1 hole - but I don't have one! The bits in brackets aren't exactly part of the melody, but are just half remembered chord sounds linking one line to the next.

 4    4  4  4  -3  -3   -3  -3  3    (2)
Long afloat o---n  shipless oceans

-5  -5  -5  -5  5  5   5    5    (-5 4)
 I  did all m---y best to smile

  4    4   4  4    -3  -3   -3  3    (2)
'Til your singing eyes and fingers

 -5  -5 -5  -5  5  5   5    5    (-5 4)
Drew me lov---ing  to your isle

 4  -4    4    4   -4 4
And you sang, sail to me

 4   -4 4    4  4  -4  4   4
Sail to me, let me enfold you---

 4   -4  4    4   -4 4  -3
Here  I  am, here  I a---m

-3  -3  -3  4    3
Waiting to hold you.
