[Intro]
Em G C
Em G C D
[Verse 1]
D Em
Through the wild, 'tween river and dale
Watched by the sun, humbled by hills
C Am Em
Sleep is mercy, though I've a ways til I'm beggin
Em
Color me grateful for the horizon of day
The breath out of one and the courage it takes
C Am Em
To find closure, in the wake of disaster
C Am Em
Oh to find saviors, in the way of the water
[Chorus]
Am Em
Steady, steady, steady
D
Steady as a storm
Em G
But lo' an ever-present home
C Em
[Verse 2]
Em
Through the shadows, beyond the gunwale
C
The safety aboard a vessel propelled by my own will
Am Em
Drifting away from the danger
Em
Under the willow's t'ween the sheen of a dew
Some laugh at the wind, and they-
C
Oh some cry to their makers
Am Em
Listening out for an answer
C Am Em
Dragging the river, always an urge for a wager
[Chorus]
Am Em
Steady, steady, steady
D
Steady as a storm
A Em G
But lo' an ever-present home
Am Em
Steady, steady, steady
D
To feel the skin and oooh
Em G
The journey's worth its waiting for
[Bridge]
C Em G C D
Yeah
[Verse 3]
Em G
So, got me to the open sea
C A
With fair winds followin'
C G A Em C
In pursuit of wonder, to leave
Em
[Chorus]
Am Em
Steady, steady, steady
D
Steady as a storm
A Em G
But lo' an ever-present home
Am Em
Steady, steady, steady
D
Feel the skin and oooh
Em G
The journey's worth its weight in gold
