Bones In The Ocean

[Verse 1]
Db
  Oh,
Db                        Gb            Db
I bid farewell to the port  and the land
                             Ab
And I paddle away from Brave England's white sands
   Db                     Gb        Db
To search for my long ago forgotten friends
                               Ab          Db
To search for the place I hear all sailors end

[Chorus]
       Gb                                     Db
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my mind
                                  Ab
I'll search without sleeping till peace I can find
  Gb
I fear not the weather,
  Db
I fear not the sea
I remember the fallen,
   Ab
do they think of me?
           Gb                    Ab        Db
When their bones in the ocean forever will be

[Verse 2]
       Db
Plot a course to the night,
          Gb       Db
to a place  I once knew
                                   Ab
To a place where my hope died along  with my crew
     Db                        Gb           Db
So I swallow my grief and face life's final test
                                 Ab        Db
To find promise of peace and the solace of rest

[Chorus]
       Gb                                     Db
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my ears
Their laughter like children,
      Ab
their beckoning cheers
   Gb
My heart longs to join them,
     Db
sing songs of the sea
I remember the fallen,
   Ab
do they think of me?
           Gb                    Ab        Db
When their bones in the ocean forever will be

[Verse 3]
        Db                     Gb          Db
When at last before my ghostly shipmates I stand
                           Ab
I shed a small tear for my home upon land
             Db                               Gb
Though their eyes speak of deaths filled with struggle and
Db
strife
                               Ab          Db
Their smiles below say I don't owe them my life

[Chorus]
       Gb                                     Db
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my eyes
                            Ab
And my boat listed over and tried to capsize
    Gb
I'm this far from drowning,
     Db
this far from the sea
I remember the living,
   Ab
do they think of me?
        Gb                    Ab        Db
When my bones in the ocean forever will be

[Verse 4]
         Db                      Gb       Db  Db
Now that I'm staring down at the darkest abyss
I'm not sure what I want,
      Ab
but I don't think it's this
   Db                        Gb            Db
As my comrades call to stand fast and forge  on
                                  Ab           Db
I make sail for the dawn till the darkness has gone

[Chorus]
Db     Gb                                   Db
As the souls of the dead live fore'er in my mind
                                  Ab
As I live all the years that they left me behind
     Gb                          Db
I'll stay on the shore but still gaze at the sea
                          Ab
I remember the fallen and they think of me
        Gb                               Db
For our souls in the ocean together will be

[Outro]
    Db                    Ab
I remember the fallen and they think of me
        Gb                               Db
For our souls in the ocean together will be
