       G                     C                                 Am   D 
I awoke in the dust of an autumn morning
             G                                     C                                   D 
Faces oil-lit and kneeling 'round the family chairs
                 G                     C                                         Am   D 
I never knew that a heart could take such filling
 G                                 C         D 
Spaces everywhere, everywhere
                 G                     C 
And the ship comes 'round
                     Am                         D 
And she's waiting at the harbour
             G                             C 
Be prepared to get on board
             D 
Be prepared
                 G                         C 
I never knew that the light of ages
 Am                       D 
Breaks away before us
             Em   D           G 
Sail away, sail away
                                                       C                               Am   D 
All the front doors opened and the men came walking
                     G                             C                   D 
Suits and shoes, heads of silver and grey
                               G                     C               Am  D 
It's one short road from a darkened cradle
               G                               C       D 
To the endless light of day
                                     C                           D                       Em 
She walked like a bride down the aisle of her childhood
                               Bm                           C                         D 
The shops, the schoolyard, the church on the hill
                                                     G                     C                     Am  D 
Where she trembled on the day she was touched and broken
             G                                   C     D 
Ah, Marie was born again
                 G                     C 
And the ship comes 'round
                     Am                         D 
And she's waiting at the harbour
             G                             C 
Be prepared to get on board
                     D 
Ah, be prepared
                 G                         C 
I never knew that the light of ages
 Am                       D 
Breaks away before us
             Em   D           G 
Sail away, sail away

                                 G             C       Am         D 
All ears to the trawler band in the evenings
             G                           C                     D 
Forty grands and the spirits run wild
                                 G                           C                     Am     D 
The storms, the drownings, the tables, the drinking
         G                                                     C     D 
The sea had claimed their lives
                                       C         D                                 Em 
There's peat smoke rising from the village chimneys
                             Bm           C                                     D 
You take your chances with the red haired girl
                                                   G                     C       Am           D 
All the boats take their rest in the heart of the harbour
           G                                     C           D 
That night in a changing world
                 G                     C 
And the ship comes 'round
                     Am                         D 
And she's waiting at the harbour
             G                             C 
Be prepared to get on board
             D 
Be prepared
                 G                         C 
I never knew that the light of ages
 Am                       D 
Breaks away before us
             Em   D           G 
Sail away, sail away
