[Gm] [C] [F] [Db] [Ab] [Eb]

When I took my boat out [Cm] to the wide sea
I [Db]
[Eb] had no care [Cm] in the world, not [Fm] a cloud disturbed [Db] the sky
I [Bbm] [Eb] was dreaming only of [Cm] how it might be
Then [Db] [Eb] dark fell [Cm] into the deep [Fm] and the wind began to [Db] rise
Nature on [Fm] the wide sea
Green mountains of [Eb] waves flew all [Bb] around
Nature [Fm] on the wide sea
The howl of [Eb] the wind died along some [Bb] sound
[Eb] [Ab] Sailors [Eb] made their peace then with [Gm] the [Cm] Almighty
[Db] Still [G] I [Eb] kept hope [Cm] in my heart [Fm] through the salt and stormy [Db] night
Every [Eb]
[Gm] [C] [F] [Db]
[Ab] [Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] hour the wind was stronger, [Bb] ever [Cm] harder
We [Db] [G] held [Eb] on tight [Cm] in the dark [Fm] as our vow [Db] rose and fell
Till [Eb] we came with daylight [Cm] into the heart
[Db] Hark by [Eb] the monastery [Cm] walls [Fm] to the ringing of [Db] a bell
Nature [Fm] on the wide sea
A day to [Eb] recall, one [Bb] day's are done
Nature [Fm] on the wide sea
The first [Eb] of a thousand ships [Bb] to come
[Eb] When I took my boat out [Cm] on the wide sea
I [Db] [Bbm] heard [Eb] my [Cm] name on the waves [Fm] in the bright and [Db] empty sky
When [Eb]
