[Eb] [Bb] In the morning light, on the edge of night,
Baby you're wrong, alright, [F] I am with you.
[Bb] You're a part of me, you'll always be,
Life's open sea, [F] the ship I [Bb] sail upon.
Will you take this [Eb] ring, [Bb] will you wear my name,
Will you hold my [C] dreams [F] as your dreams?
I [Bb] will take this band, as if it's my hand,
As we leave this land, [F] be the ship I [Bb] sail upon.
Take me to [Eb] the water, lead me to [Bb] your shore,
Where [F] forever is forever, and all the [Bb] days before.
And if lightning [Eb] is a passion, [C] and thunder [Bb] be waiting,
Let the [F] storms of life's windies
[Bb] rage on.

[D] Take me [Eb] to the water, lead [Bb] me to your shore,
Where forever [F] is forever, [A] and all the [Bb] days before.
[D] And if lightning [Eb] is a passion, and [Bb] thunder be waiting,
[Cm] Let the storms [F] of life's windies
[Bb] rage on.
In the morning light, on the edge of night,
Baby you're wrong, alright, [F] I am with you.
[Bb] You're a part of [Eb]
me, [Bb] you'll always be,
Life's open [F] sea, the ship [D] I [Bb] sail upon.
[F] You'll be the ship I [Bb] sail upon.
