From Emil's Tablature
Here is the basic form of the song. Please add any corrections, as this is far from perfect.
D (all D's may be Dm)
A song I heard the ocean sing
D
A shining light in darkness deep
D
I prayed a prayer into the tide
D
And both they soothed me in my sleep
G
For every season that has passed I prayed a prayer into the
tide
G
A shining light in darkness deep in me
G A
Ten years before the mast
D
For every season that has passed
D
I laid my body over the side
D
A shining light in darkness deep
D
I prayed a prayer into the tide
G
How can I answer questions I've known?
G
How can I answer questions I've known?
G
How can I answer questions I've known?
G A
How can I answer questions I've known?
D
A song I heard the ocean sing
D
A shining light in darkness deep
D
Ten years before the mast
D
I heard the ocean sing
