Here I stand alo[G]ne again, reac[A7]hing out ac[D]ross the room[C][Bm]
Quietly the [C]sun's gone down[G] and sailors [A7]seek the [D]harbour[G]
Look at us [A7]sailing in,[D] decks awash but [C]still afloat[Bm]
And now the [C]wind's come up to [G]rock us [D]on the [G]water
CHORUS:
Riding out the [Bm]storm like a [C]ship safe at [G]anchor
Waiting out the [Bm]long voyage, 'round the [C]Cape of [D]Hope we'll [G]take her
INTERLUDE: Bm C D G
In the calm be[A7]fore the storm,[D] sunny days and [C]smoother waters[Bm]
When we hit the [C]seventh wave,[G] we found a [A7]line and [D]caught her[G]
Look into my [A7]eyes, let me [D]see where you've been [C]sailing[Bm]
Like you, I've [C]felt the storm[G] and heard the [D]wild waves [G]wailing
CHORUS:
Riding out the [Bm]storm like a [C]ship safe at [G]anchor
Waiting out the [Bm]long voyage, 'round the [C]Cape of [D]Hope we'll [G]take her
INSTRUMENTAL: G A7 D C Bm C G A7 D G A7 D C Bm C G D G
Steer clear of the [A7]shore,[D] the coast is rough and [C]rocky
It's the [Bm]deepest channel that [C]runs most true,[G] the brightest [A7]stars that [D]mark her[G]
Steady as she [A7]goes, there's [D]no turning back the [C]sailors
With the [Bm]ship on course and the [C]sea wind fair,[G] there's no [D]need to [G]fail her
