[Am]Oh, the waves crash in and the tide pulls out
[G]It's an angry sea but there is no doubt
[F]That the lighthouse will keep shining out
[G]To warn the lonely sailor
[Am]The lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold
[G]Through the sailor's bones to the sailor's soul
[F]Till there's nothing left that he can hold
[G]Except the rolling ocean
[Am]But I am [F]ready for the [Em]storm
[G]Yes Sir, ready
[Am]I a[F]m ready for the[Em] storm
[G]I'm ready for th[Am]e storm

[Am]Oh, give me mercy for my dreams
[G]'Cause every confrontation seems
[F]To tell me what it really means
[G]To be this lonely sailor
[Am]And when you take me by your side
[G]You love me warm, you love me
[F]And I should have realized
[G]I had no reasons to be frightened
[Am]But I [F]am ready for the[Em] storm
[G]Yes Sir, ready
[Am]I am [F]ready for the[Em] storm
[G]I'm ready for th[Am]e storm
Am G F G Am G F G (lead played over these chords)
[Am]The distance it is no real friend
[G]And time will take its time
[F]And you will find that in the end
[G]It brings you me, the lonely sailor
[Am]And when the sky begins to clear
[G]The sun it melts away my fear
[F]I'll cry a silent weary tear
[G]For those that need to love me.
[Am]But I [F]am ready for the [Em]storm
[G]Yes Sir, ready
[Am]I am [F]ready for the [Em]storm
[G]Yes Sir, ready
[Am]I am [F]ready for the[Em] storm
[G]Yes Sir, ready
[Am]I am [F]ready for the [Em]storm
[G]I'm ready for the[Am] storm
