Key: Db major
Verse 1
Oh, I bid farewell to the port and the land
And I paddle away
from Brave England's white sands
To search for my long ago forgotten friends
To search for the place I hear all sailors end
Chorus 1
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?
Ab
Db
forever will be
Verse 2
Plot a course to the night,
to a place I once knew
To a place where my hope died
along with my crew
So I swallow my grief and face life's final test
To find promise of peace
and the solace of rest
Chorus 2
Their laughter like children,
Ab
I remember the fallen, do they think of me?
Ab
Db
forever will be
Verse 3
When at last,
before my ghostly shipmates I stand
I shed a small tear for my home upon land
Though their eyes speak of depths
filled with struggle and strife
Their smiles below say
I don't owe them my life
Chorus 3
Ab
And my boat listed over and tried to capsize
Ab
I remember the living, do they think of me?
Ab
Db
forever will be
Verse 4
Now that I'm staring down
at the darkest abyss
I'm not sure what I want,
but I don't think it's this
As my comrades call to stand fast
and forge on
I make sail for the dawn
'til the darkness has gone
Chorus 4
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
Ab
Db
together will be
I remember the fallen and they think of me
For our souls in the ocean
Together will be
