Kate Wolf - Safe At Anchor
CAPO: 2nd Fret
GHere I stand aA7lone again, Dreaching out aCcross the roomBm  
Quietly the Csun's gone down Gand sailors A7seek the DharbourG  
Look at us A7sailing in, Ddecks awash but Cstill afloatBm  
And now the Cwind's come up to Grock us Don the Gwater
CHORUS:
Riding out the Bmstorm like a Cship safe at Ganchor
Waiting out the Bmlong voyage, 'round the CCape of DHope we'll Gtake her
INTERLUDE:     Bm    C    D  G  
In the calm beA7fore the storm, Dsunny days and Csmoother watersBm  
When we hit the Cseventh wave, Gwe found a A7line and Dcaught herG  
Look into my A7eyes, let me Dsee where you've been CsailingBm  
Like you, I've Cfelt the storm Gand heard the Dwild waves Gwailing
CHORUS:
Riding out the Bmstorm like a Cship safe at Ganchor
Waiting out the Bmlong voyage, 'round the CCape of DHope we'll Gtake her
INSTRUMENTAL:   G    A7    D    C    Bm    C    G    A7    D    G    A7    D    C    Bm    C    G    D  G  
Steer clear of the A7shore, Dthe coast is rough and Crocky
It's the Bmdeepest channel that Cruns most true, Gthe brightest A7stars that Dmark herG  
Steady as she A7goes, there's Dno turning back the Csailors
With the Bmship on course and the Csea wind fair, Gthere's no Dneed to Gfail her
CHORUS:
Riding out the Bmstorm like a Cship safe at Ganchor
Waiting out the Bmlong voyage, 'round the CCape of DHope we'll Gtake her
INSTRUMENTAL:   G    A7    D    C    Bm    C    G    D   G  
CHORUS:
Riding out the Bmstorm like a Cship safe at Ganchor
Waiting out the Bmlong voyage, 'round the CCape of DHope we'll Gtake her
