Bones in the Ocean Chords by The Longest Johns

[Start]

[Verse]
N.C.                                      
Oh I bid farewell to the port and the land
N.C.                                              
And I paddle away from Brave England's white sands
N.C.                                       
To search for my long ago forgotten friends
N.C.                                          
To search for the place I hear all sailors end


[Chorus]
N.C.                                              
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my mind
N.C.                                              
I'll search without sleeping 'til peace I can find
N.C.                                     
I fear not the weather I fear not the sea


[Verse]
N.C.                                     
I remember the fallen do they think of me
N.C.                                         
When their bones in the ocean forever will be
N.C.                                             
Plot a course to the night to a place I once knew
N.C.                                            
To a place where my hope died along with my crew
N.C.                                            
So I swallow my grief and face life's final test
N.C.                                           
To find promise of peace and the solace of rest


[Chorus]
N.C.                                              
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my ears
N.C.                                               
Their laughter like children their beckoning cheers
N.C.                                             
My heart longs to join them sing songs of the sea


[Verse]
N.C.                                     
I remember the fallen do they think of me
N.C.                                         
When their bones in the ocean forever will be
N.C.                                            
When at last before my ghostly shipmates I stand
N.C.                                     
I shed a small tear for my home upon land
N.C.                                                             
Though their eyes speak of depths filled with struggle and strife
N.C.                                           
Their smiles below say I don't owe them my life
N.C.                                              
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my eyes
N.C.                                        
And my boat listed over and tried to capsize
N.C.                                            
I'm this far from drowning this far from the sea
N.C.                                     
I remember the living do they think of me
N.C.                                      
When my bones in the ocean forever will be
N.C.                                          
Now that I'm staring down at the darkest abyss
N.C.                                                
I'm not sure what I want but I don't think it's this
N.C.                                          
As my comrades call to stand fast and forge on
N.C.                                                
I make sail for the dawn until the darkness has gone


[Chorus]
N.C.                                            
As the souls of the dead live fore'er in my mind
N.C.                                            
As I live all the years that they left me behind
N.C.                                            
I'll stay on the shore but still gaze at the sea
N.C.                                      
I remember the fallen and they think of me
N.C.                                        
For our souls in the ocean together we'll be


[Verse]
N.C.                                      
I remember the fallen and they think of me
N.C.                      
For our souls in the ocean
N.C.             
Together we'll be


[End]
