Intro: E B A (2x)Verse 1:
E I see the thunderheads rise A In the northern sky E And my heart is sinking A In the threatening tide E 'cause my portside's heavy A With the worries of life E And the worries of dying A On the starboard sideVerse 2:
E Well, I wonder, am I really A Stouthearted enough? E 'Cause the ocean is rolling A And these waters are rough E There's a storm cloud brewing A In the sky above E So let my vessel be sturdy B Let my anchor be toughC#m A 'Cause the clouds are known to gather E B And the wind is prone to blow A B I'll keep her steady as a river A B When the wild wind comes to blow A B I've already been delivered E A So I'll keep her steady as she goesVerse 3:
E A Well, I shiver in the wake of the raging storm E And my rigging is tattered A And these sails are torn E A Gonna cast this cargo overboard E But I ain't setting my headings B For no change in courseE B E AC#m A 'Cause the clouds are known to gather E B And the wind is prone to blow A B I'll keep her steady as a river A B When the wild wind comes to blow A B I've already been delivered E A So I'll keep her steady as she goesBridge:
F#m E So when you can't find the faith to slumber A C#m A When you're thrown by every swell C#m B You know that you're not going under F#m C#m B With the captain at the helmA B So keep her steady as a river A B When the wild wind comes to blow A B You've already been delivered E A So just keep her steady as she goes E A So keep her steady as she goes B A E Steady as she goes
