Oh, the waves crash in and the tide pulls out G It's an angry sea but there is no doubt F That the lighthouse will keep shining out G To warn the lonely sailor Am The lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold G Through the sailor's bones to the sailor's soul F Till there's nothing left that he can hold G Except the rolling ocean [Chorus] Am F Em But I am ready for the storm G Yes Sir, ready Am F Em I am ready for the storm G Am I'm ready for the storm (x3) ----------------------------------| --3--1--0--1--0-------------------| -----------------2--0--------0--2-| -----------------------0--2-------| ----------------------------------| ----------------------------------| (x1) -------------------------| --1--0-------------------| --------2--0--------0--2-| --------------0--2-------| -------------------------| -------------------------| Am 2. Oh, give me mercy for my dreams G 'Cause every confrontation seems F To tell me what it really means G To be this lonely sailor Am And when you take me by your side G You love me warm, you love me F And I should have realized G I had no reasons to be frightened [Chorus] Am F Em But I am ready for the storm G Yes Sir, ready Am F Em I am ready for the storm G Am I'm ready for the storm Am G F G Am G F G Am 3. The distance it is no real friend G And time will take its time F And you will find that in the end G It brings you me, the lonely sailor Am And when the sky begins to clear G The sun it melts away my fear F I'll cry a silent weary tear G For those that need to love me. [Chorus] Am F Em But I am ready for the storm G Yes Sir, ready Am F Em I am ready for the storm G Yes Sir, ready Am F Em I am ready for the storm G Yes Sir, ready Am F Em I am ready for the storm G Am I'm ready for the storm
