Topic: Uncertain Seas
I have been accumulating thoughts over the past few dys and finally had time to put them together. Resulted in this song.
Uncertain Seas By Jim Kenyon
Verse 1
[G] What is the truth we’re told day by day
[D/F#] while away from winds of change we stay
[Em] What is imagined or real in what we say
and[Cadd9] what decides [D/F#]who will light the [G]way?
.
Verse 2
.
[G] There’s a million people living on a string
[D/F#] Fearful of what the next day may bring
[Em] Silent prayers help them through suffering
their[Cadd9] faith gives them [D/F#]what life can't [G] bring
.
Chorus
.
[Cadd9] Like an old [G] sailor, drunk and [D] asleep in his [Em] boots
[Cadd9] Dreaming of [G] shores where his [D] heart laid down roots
[Cadd9] We drift through [G] life on un[D]certain [Em] seas
[Cadd9] Praying the [G] storms will end and [D/F#] bring us [G]peace
.
Verse 3
.
[G] The world keeps turning, the tides still flow
[D/F#] Where it leads us, nobody can really know
[Em] We find our way where, only the brave dare go
We [Cadd9] chase the light [D/F#] when the dark winds [G] blow
.
Bridge
.
[Em] The night may [Bm] fall, the [Cadd9] winds may [D] tear
[Em] But courage [Cadd9] grows from what we [D] bear
.
Final Chorus
.
[Cadd9] Like an old [G] sailor, drunk and [D] asleep in his [Em] boots
[Cadd9] Dreaming of [G] shores where his [D] heart laid down roots
[Cadd9] We drift through [G] life on un[D]certain [Em] seas
[Cadd9] Praying the [G]storms end and [D/F#]bring us [G]peace
.
Outgo - play a little slower
.
[C]We all drift [G]through life [D]on uncertain [Em]seas
[Cadd9] Praying the [G]storms end and [D/F#]bring us [G]peace
.
Even slower
.
[Cadd9] Praying the [G]storms end and [D/F#]bring everlasting [G]peace
The price of anything, is the amount of life you exchange for it. - H.D. Thoreau
Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.
"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except only the the best." - Henry Van Dyke
