[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   Asus4   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   Asus4   A
Where all strangers are known.
[Solo] G |D ||x3 D A |G C |D || [Verse 3]
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.

           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   Asus4   A
Where all strangers are known.
