[Verse 1]
    Db                    Gb           Db
Oh, I bid farewell to the port and the land
                             Ab
and I paddle away from brave England's white sands
   Db                     Gb        Db
To search for my long ago forgotten friends
                               Ab          Db
to search for the place I hear all sailors end
 
[Chorus]
       Gb                                     Db
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my mind
                                  Ab
I'll search without sleeping 'til peace I can find
  Gb                      Db
I fear not the weather, I fear not the sea
                           Ab
I remember the fallen, do they think of me?
           Gb                    Absus4 Ab   Db
When their bones in the ocean forever   will be
 
[Verse 2]
       Db                             Gb           Db
Plot a course through the night, to a place I once knew
                               Ab
To a place where my hope died, along with my crew
     Db                        Gb           Db
So I swallow my grief and face life's final test
                                 Ab        Db
to find promise of peace and the solace of rest
 
[Chorus]
       Gb                                     Db
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my ears
                                    Ab
their laughter like children, their beckoning cheers
   Gb                             Db
My heart longs to join them, sing songs of the sea
                          Ab
I remember the fallen, do they think of me?
           Gb                    Absus4 Ab   Db
When their bones in the ocean forever   will be
 
[Verse 3]
        Db                     Gb          Db
When at last before my ghostly shipmates I stand
                           Ab
I shed a small tear for my home upon land
             Db                               Gb           Db
though their eyes speak of deaths filled with struggle and strife
                                 Ab          Db
their smiles, below, say I don't owe them my life
 
[Chorus]
       Gb                                     Db
As the souls of the dead fill the space of my eyes
                            Ab
and my boat listed over and tried to capsize
    Gb                           Db
I'm this far from drowning, this far from the sea
                          Ab
I remember the living, do they think of me?
        Gb                    Absus4 Ab   Db
When my bones in the ocean forever   will be
 
[Verse 4]
         Db                      Gb        Db
Now that I'm staring down at the darkest abyss
                                Ab
I'm not sure what I want, but I don't think it's this
   Db                        Gb             Db
As my comrades call to stand fast and forge on
                                  Ab           Db
I make sail for the dawn 'til the darkness has gone
 
[Chorus]
       Gb                                  Db
As the souls of the dead live for'er in my mind
                                  Ab
as I live all the years that they left me behind
      Gb                         Db
I'll stay on the shore but still gaze at the sea
                          Ab
I remember the fallen and they think of me
        Gb                   Absus4 Ab   Db
For our souls in the ocean together will be
 
(Single Strum)
    Db                    Ab
I remember the fallen and they think of me
        Gb                   Ab          Db
For our souls in the ocean together will be
