Capo on 2nd fret
	        
 
 
Intro: A,   A,   A,   A 
 
  A        A       E      D    A 
In Waters calm I sailed from shore 
  D                  E 
To see what I might see 
  A                 E   D   A 
And having never sailed before 
  D            E 
I drifted aimlessly 
      D         E              A 
A warm breeze rocked my boat until 
   D             A 
In slumber I fell sound 
   A                   E    D     A 
But woke to find the light grown dim 
   D                E        A      A      A 
And dark clouds gathering 'round 
 
  A                 E     D    A 
In haste I worked at turning back 
   D         A          E 
But now the wind blew wrong 
   A                      E   D    A 
And when the night came cold and black 
   D               A     E 
My strength was almost gone 
     E           D               A 
But with one last small thread of hope 
  D          A      E 
I bowed my head to pray 
     A                  E   D   A 
Then through the dark I saw a rope 
    D             E     A 
And heard a calm voice say 
 
A A Grab the rope D A Hold it tight A A In the distance E E Shines a light A A Neither fear D A Nor feel alone A A There is one E D A A Who'll lead you home
A E D A I heard my heart beat loud and fast D A E But did as I was told A E D A And with the rosey dawn at last D A E Dry land I did behold E D A I kissed the sandy banks and swore D A E My sailing days were through A E D A But should I ever stray from shore E D A I know now what to do
A A Grab the rope D A Hold it tight A A In the distance E E Shines a light A A Neither fear D A Nor feel alone A A There is one E D A Who'll lead you home
(Repeat Chorus until song fades)
