Verse 1
(A minor) 1, 2, 1, 2, 3
Far rolling off the ocean
like a blanket on the sun
Through the world of darkness
and we knew it had begun
The ocean swelled, (D minor)
the wind blew a ghastly wave (A minor)
We were wait (E major) ing on the devil
to come (F major) on up and take (G major) us all (A minor) to hell
That derrick was an island
to which mercenaries tend
Each of us had our necklaces of
sorrow that we'd earned
Our captain paid, (D minor)
and gave us a mournful nod (A minor)
The wind howled (E major) as he said it
but I saw (F major) his mouth say,
(G major) make your peace with God. (A minor)
There are mo (D minor) ments we remember
for the im (A minor) pact that they have.
Scar (D minor) our lives with sorrow,
mark our (A minor) souls with deathly ash.
When we wake (D minor) up just to find
ourselves surviv (A minor) ors after (E major) all
We wonder why (F major) an (G major) d we heed the (A minor) call
I have preached the word to Sodom
since the storm of 52
I have argued for salvation
and helped Jesus come in view
A hundred men (D minor) were with me
when the storm broke through (A minor)
How every (E major) one of them were
washed away (F major)
That's (G major) (A minor) a mo (D minor) ment
that will haunt me
the remainder (A minor) of my years
It's a night (D minor) mare that comes at me
in the throes (A minor) of nightly fear,
how I held (D minor) on to a stench
and the only one (A minor) not torn (E major) away,
and watched (D minor) my comrades (F major) die (G major)
that (A minor) day (D minor)
(A minor) (E major) (F major) (G major)
(A minor)
No matter how I preach the gospel,
how many souls I've come to save,
My heart knows there are far too
many stains to wash away
Upon my soul, (D minor)
a man knows his worth in (A minor) time
And I will join (E major) them on that burnin' lake
And climb (F major) upon the fire (G major)
that will be mine (A minor)
The greatest terror (F major)
is that I am never haunted (C major)
By those days when I killed (F major)
all of those innocent
Left sor (C major) row in my own way
Instead I tremble (F major) at the memory
Of that (C major) storm upon (G major) the (E major) sea
When I (A minor) look (F major) into the devil's eye
And saw (A minor) his soul in me
A fog rolling off the ocean
Like a blanket on the sun you
