Dar Williams - The Light And The Sea
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
