Steeples

               F#                 
I heard a story about a boy  who 
G                    F#          
was swept off the deck
        G

F#                   G           
The sweeping tide swept the sea 
                F# G F#
over his neck
(Repeat chord sequence)
But it did not end there, the boy 
began to swim
And dared to the sea that dared to 
invade him

Chorus:
Bm        F#    G          D
did you ever want to know me
did you ever feel like you could
**Em
it's a silent steeple
G                      Em
that carries us down
                  F#
it's a silent steeple

(Back to verse riff)

Verse 2:
But the sea wouldn't so much as 
reply
So the boy swore to the ships that 
were fated to die
Red sky at night, sailors delight
Red sky in the morning, sailors take
 warning

Chorus
F#
sail on, take it back, sail on, take
 it back, sail on, take it back

Bridge:  (Same chords as chorus)
We were going with the wind in our 
hair
And we didn't want to look back 
'cause if we did
We would not care
And if we all were to die now
Well it wouldn't be that bad
'Cause that boy in the waves said
he'd give us everything
Everything he had
To go on and trace that scar,
like we did ten years before

(Solo over verse, chorus chords)

chorus

F#
sail on, take it back, sail on, take
 it back, sail on, take it back
sail on, take it back, sail on, take
 it back, sail on, take it back, 
sail on....
