G G7 C
Well I use to sing in Texas and it sounded fine to me
D G
I guess I've come a long long way
G G7 C
But I've changed the words so many times I lost the melody
D G
And I never even saw it slip away
G Am D G
Out to sea there is a refuge
Am D G
Where the holy winds are strong
Am D G Em A C D
Out to sea there is a high place takes so long
G G7 C
So I thought of California by the shinning sea
D G
Though I'd write the song of songs
G G7 C
I could hear my baby's goodbye voice ringing out to me
D G
Dear David I hope you live that long
G Am D G
Out to sea there is a refuge
Am D G
Where the holy winds are strong
Am D G Em
Out to sea there is a high place
A C
Sailor lead me to your song
D G D
And we will bathe in the white foaming water
G A
And be pure as God's driven snow
D G D
On that cloudless day there'll be no sorrow
G Am G Am
So the story goes the story goes
G G7 C
Well I might never sing a song that's good enough for me
D G
Chase the doubts and fears away
G G7
C
On a sinking ship of hope I could hear the sailors calling
D G
Call the captain sail away
G Am D G
Out to sea there is a refuge
Am D G
Where the holy winds are strong
Am D G Em A D
Out to sea there is a high place lead me to your song
D G D
And we will bathe in the white foaming water
G A
And be pure as God's given snow
D G D
On that cloudless day there'll be no sorrow
G Am G Am G
So the story goes the story goes
