Capo 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)
