Capo 1
[Verse]
C
It's been so long out here sitting and drifting all alone
G
Lost in a wild place, no sign of home
F C
So I write you with love from the wide ocean
C
And I know we haven’t spoken at all for so long
G
But there's something I need to tell you
F C
and there's something I've thought about for so long, in the wide ocean
C
If the sun don’t shine on me
G
I’ll look to the stars ahead
Bb F
And send a message from the sea
C
If the moon don’t rise again
G
I watch the water beneath my feet
Bb F
And the world to bring you to me
Am G
The clouds are all around me
Gm
The water's still below me
F
And the ground may never be found
Am G
If only I could build a bridge of bones
Gm
With every bone in my body
F
So many bones in my body
[Chorus] (x2)
C G
So I will float to find my love
Bb
So shine your light
F
Show me a way, show me a way to forever
[Verse]
C
C
And the colors of home I'm remembering so strong
G
Beautiful colors I ain't seen in so long
F C
Will I find you again before I die? I don’t know
C
And I guess I must have done something really wrong
G
Cause all I've been drifting out here pretty long
F C
So I write you with love from the wide ocean
[Verse]
C
If the sun don’t shine on me
G
I’ll look to the stars ahead
Bb F
And send a message from the sea
C
If the moon don’t rise again
G
I watch the water beneath my feet
Bb F
And the world to bring you to me
[Chorus] (x4)
C G
So I will float to find my love
Bb
So shine your light
F
Show me a way, show me a way to forever (and)
[Verse]
Am F G
I've been good, I've been wrong
Am C
I've been gone too long
Dm Em
I've been right, I've been told
F
I've been lost too long
Am F G Am C
I've lived my life, sung my song out here all alone
Dm Em G Gsus4
I need to build a bridge of bones to get home
[Bridge]
C
If the sun don’t shine on me
G
I’ll look to the stars ahead
Bb F
And send a message from the sea
[Outro]
C G
So I will float to find my love
Bb
So shine your light
F
Show me a way, show me a way to forever (and)
