In the

lamplit eye of the cold dark night
C
Am
F
I'm sitting in my room
C
Am
Trying to right a wrong
F
C
Am
I wrote in a song I wrote for you
F
C
But the waves crash down
F
C
Am
And the wind comes howling through
F
C
Am
The lines all fade from my empty page
F
C
Am
And the rhymes just won't ring true
F
C
Am
In the golden flower of the magic hour
F
C
Birds sing sacred tunes
Am
F
C
The trees all call from
Am
F
the empty hall,
C
Am
they are calling now for you.
F
C
But you strapped your back to
Am
F
the tallest mast,
C
Am
and you sailed into the blue.
F
C
Am
Now I wait and watch every little spot
F
C
Am
that fades in and out of view.
F
C
Are you waiting to come ashore?
Are you waiting to come ashore?
Are you waiting to come ashore?
Am
F
C
What are you waiting?
F
C
Am
The sands, they have their way
F
C
Of washing clean all my
Am
F
endless dreams
C
Am
To gel my cares, the castaways
F
C
Am
But un derground I can hear the sound
F
C
Am
Of ancient rivers rising once again
F
C
Am
F
I hear the bells and I feel the swells
C
Am
But I don't know what they mean
F
C
Am
F
Are you waiting to come ashore?

Are you waiting to come ashore?
F

Oh, are you waiting to come?

Oh, are you waiting?

F
C
Am
In the gauzy haze of a summer's day
F
C
Am
I am lying in my room
F
C
Am
Trying to find a space in time
F
C
Am
Where I'm holding on to you
F
C
But the sunlight fades
Am
F
And the past replays
C
Am
And the tides all turn too soon
F
C
Am
F
If I fall inside these little walls
C
Am
There's nothing I can do
F
C
Are you waiting to come ashore?
