The Rope Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]In [C]wat[G]ers calm I
sailed from shore
[C]To see what [G]I might s[D]ee
And [G]having never sailed [C]before
[G]I dri[C]fted aim[G]les[D]sly
A warm breeze rocked my [G]boat until
[C]In slumber [G]I fell s[D]ound
But [G]woke to find the light [C]grown [G]dim
And [D]dark clouds gathering [G]'round

[Verse 2]
In [G]haste I worked at turn[C]ing [G]back
But [C]now the [G]wind blew [D]wrong
And [G]when the night came
cold [C]and [G]black
[C]My strength was [G]almost [D]gone
But with one last small [G]thread of hope
I [C]bowed my [G]head to [D]pray
Then [G]through the dark I saw [C]a r[G]ope
And [D]heard a calm voice [G]say

[Verse 3]
[G]Grab [C]the [G]rope
[C]Hold it [G]tight
In [C]the [G]distance
[D]Shines a light
[G]Neither [C]fea[G]r
Nor [C]feel [G]alone
There [C]is [G]One
Who'll [D]lead you [G]home

[Verse 4]
I [G]heard my heart beat loud [C]and [G]fast
But [C]did as [G]I was t[D]old
And [G]with the rosey dawn [C]at [G]last
Dry [C]land I [G]did be[D]hold
I kissed the sandy [G]banks and swore
[C]My sailing [G]days were [D]through
But [G]should I ever stray [C]from [G]shore
I [D]know now what to [G]do

[Verse 5]
[G]Grab [C]the [G]rope
[C]Hold it [G]tight
In [C]the [G]distance
[D]Shines a light
[G]Neither [C]fea[G]r
Nor [C]feel [G]alone
There [C]is [G]One
Who'll [D]lead you [G]home

[Verse 6]
[G]Grab [C]the [G]rope
[C]Hold it [G]tight
In [C]the [G]dis[D]tance
Shines a [G]light
[C]Neither [G]fea[C]r
Nor [G]feel alone
There is One
Who'll lead you home
