Ready For The Storm by Rich Mullins
Key: DmDm | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

Verse 1
Dm
The waves crash in and the tide rolls out
        C
It's an angry sea but there is no doubt
         Bb
That the lighthouse will keep shining out
   C
To warn a lonely sailor
        Dm
and The lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold
            C
Through the sinner’s bones to the sailor's soul
             Bb
Till there's nothing left that he can hold
  C
Except the rolling ocean

Chorus
   Dm   Bb              C
Oh I am ready for the storm  Yes Sir, ready
Dm   Bb             C                           Dm     
I am ready for the storm  I'm ready for the storm

Intro
Dm

Verse 2
    Dm
Oh, give me mercy for my dreams
       C
'Cause every confrontation seems
   Bb
To tell me what it really means
   C
To be this lonely sailor
Dm
when the sky begins to clear
     C
The sun it melts away my fear
      Bb
and I cry a silent weary tear
    C
For those that mean to love me.

Chorus
   Dm   Bb              C
Oh I am ready for the storm  Yes Sir, ready
Dm   Bb             C                           Dm     
I am ready for the storm  I'm ready for the storm

Verse 3
    Dm
The distance it is no real friend
    C
And time will take its time
             Bb
And you will find that in the end
              C
It brings you me, this lonely sailor
    Dm
And when you take me by the hand
    C
You love me Lord, you love me
       Bb
And I should have realized
          C
I had no reasons to be frightened

Chorus
   Dm   Bb              C
Oh I am ready for the storm  Yes Sir, ready
Dm   Bb             C                           Dm     
I am ready for the storm  I'm ready for the storm
