Steady As She Goes Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I[A]
[G]see[A] the thunde[D]rheads rise
In the [G]northern sky
And my [D]heart is sinking
In [G]the threatening tide
[D]'Cause my portside's heavy
With the wor[G]ries of life
And the [D]worries of dying
On the [G]starboard side

[Verse 2]
Well, I [D]wonder, am I really
Stout[G]hearted enough?
'Cause the [D]ocean is rolling
And these wa[G]ters are rough
There's a [D]storm cloud brewing
In the [G]sky above
So let my [D]vessel be sturdy
Let my [A]anchor be tough

[Verse 3]
'Cause the [Bm]clouds
are known [G]to gather
And the [Bm]wind is [G]prone to [A]blow
I'll keep my eyes on the horizon
Not below
And keep [G]her steady as a [A]river
When [G]the wild wind comes [A]to blow
I've [G]already been de[A]livered
So I'll keep [D]her steady as she goes
[G]

[Verse 4]
Well, I [D]shiver in the wake of the
raging [G]storm
And my [D]rigging is tattered
And these [G]sails are torn
Gonna [D]cast this cargo [G]overboard
But I ain't set[D]ting my headings
For [A]no change in course

[Verse 5]
Though the [Bm]clouds
are known [G]to gather
And the [Bm]wind is [G]prone to [A]blow

[Verse 6]
I'll keep [G]her steady as a [A]river
When [G]the wild wind comes to [A]blow
I've [G]already been de[A]livered
So I'll keep [D]her steady
as [G]she goes

[Verse 7]
So when you can't [C]find the faith
to slum[Bm]ber[G]
[Bm]When [G]you're thrown by [D]every [Em]swell
You know that [Bm]you're not [D]going [A]under
[F#]With the captain at the helm
