Tom: A
Introdução:
Am
Oh, the waves crash in and the tide pulls out.
G
It's an angry sea but there is no doubt
F
That the lighthouse will keep shining out
G
To warn the lonely sailor.
Am
The lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold
G
Through the sailor's bones to the sailor's soul
F
Till there's nothing left that he can hold
G
Except the rolling ocean.
Am F Em
But I am ready for the storm,
G
Yes, sir, ready.
Am F Em
I am ready for the storm,
G Am
I'm ready for the storm.
(x3)
Am
Oh, give me mercy for my dreams,
G
'Cause every confrontation seems
F
To tell me what it really means
G
To be this lonely sailor.
Am
And when the sky begins to clear,
G
The sun, it melts away my fear.
F
I'll cry a silent, weary tear
G
For those that need to love me.
Chorus
Am G F G Am G F G(instrumental
Am
The distance, it is no real friend
G
And time will take its time
F
And you will find that in the end
G
It brings you me, the lonely sailor.
Am
And when you take me by your side
G
You love me warm, you love me,
F
And I should have realized
G
I had no reason to be frightened.
Am F Em
But I am ready for the storm,
G
Yes, sir, ready.
Am F Em
I am ready for the storm,
G
Yes, sir, ready.
Am F Em
I am ready for the storm,
G
Yes, sir, ready.
Am F Em
I am ready for the storm,
G Am
ready for the storm.
