G              Cmaj7
I set out one night
                   G
When the tide was low
                          Cmaj7
There were signs in the sky
             G
But I did not know
G7  Em7 Dm
I'd be caught in the grip
               Dm  Em
Of an undertow
F
Ditched on a beach
                         F  G
Where the sea hates to go
         Am
With a child in my arms
        Cdim          G   C
And a chill in my soul
        Dm
And my heart the shape
      D7          G
Of a begging bo---owl
                     D7
I set out one night
                G
But I did not know
