Intro   G    D    x3   D   A   G   C   D      

verse 1 
G                             D 
 See the dark night has come down on us 
G                          D 
 The world is livin' in it’s dream 
G                             D 
 But now we know that we can wake up from this sleep 
                     A       G              C        D 
And set out on the journey; find a ship to take us on the way. 
G                                  D 
 The time has come to trust that guiding light 
G                           D 
 And leavin' all the rest behind 
G                                     D 
 We'll take the road that leads down to the waterside 
                     A       G              C        D 
And set out on the journey; find a ship to take us on the way. 

Chorus 
           C  Am           G 
And we'll sail out on the water 
           D             A 
Yes we'll feel the seas roll 
           Em              G 
Yes we'll meet out on the water 
                C         A   D/A   A 
Where all strangers are known. 

verse 2 
G                       D 
 If you travel blindly, if you fall 
G                             D 
 The truth is there to set you free 
G                                    D 
 And when your heart can see just one thing in this life 
                     A       G              C        D 
We’ll set out on the journey; find a ship to take us on the way. 

Chorus 
           C  Am           G 
And we'll sail out on the water 
           D             A 
Yes we'll feel the seas roll 
           Em              G 
Yes we'll meet out on the water 
                C         A   D/A   A 
Where all strangers are known.

 See the dark night has come down on us 
G                           D 
 The world is livin' in it’s dream 
G                             D 
 But now we know that we can wake up from this sleep 
                     A       G              C        D 
And set out on the journey; find a ship to take us on the way.
