Intro: G    D  G   D  Em  C  G 

D                             C              G 
Setting out upon the waves in darkness and upheaval 
D                             C                 G 
I was told that I alone would not know good and evil 
Em            Bm 
Oh oh, but in time 
    Em        C     D 
But oh oh, in time 
           G 
It came to me 
                       D        G 
That as our ship would fall and rise 
                 D       Em 
I could turn and lift my eyes 
      C 
To the light 
       G 
A distant light 
                   D      G 
And there will all-always be 
          D       Em 
The light and the sea 
            C                 G 
The roiling sea, the light and me 


    D                                C                 G 
And as the days went by, I turned my wheel towards the thunder 
D                             C                  G 
Taking on a challenge, that I knew could take me under 
Em                    Bm 
Oh oh, and it took me down 
    Em                C     D 
And oh oh, it took me down 
               G 
And it came to me 
                D        G 
As I cursed the stem and sail 
                        D        Em 
And called it fate that I should fail 
          C 
There is a light 
          G 
There is a light 
                   D      G 
And there will all-always be 
          D       Em 
The light and the sea 
            C                 G      Em   Bm 
The roiling sea, the light and me 


       Am   C       D 
And it all___ comes down 
        G 
Down to me 
                     D     G 
To feel the presence of my soul 
                    D       Em 
Amidst the torrents and the cold 
      C      G 
Of the sea 
                   D      G 
And there will all-always be 
          D       Em 
The light and the sea 
            C                 G   
The roiling sea, the light and me 


OUTRO: Em   C   G   Em   C 
                    G 
       The light and me
