For easiest chords I put the capo at fret 6.
Alternate or different capo fret positions are easily possible by using the transpose
button below.
The chords will automatically adapt to the new capo position.
Plus 1 on the transpose button means capo fret position one down; minus one
means capo one fret up.
Using the Transpose button can affect the placement of the chords in the line. Small
movements of the chords on the line are possible (depends on length chord names).
Example: To play this without capo set the transpose button at +6.
Half step down tuning set the transpose button at +7.
[Verse 1]
Dm G C FAll the years of waiting for the boys to come back home,
Dm G C FHear the stories they could tell, and see how much they've grown,
Dm G C FIn the night I think about the lives they could have led,
Dm G C FCut short at the finish line, no more the earth to tread.
{Chorus}
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FWe will hear their voice no more,
Dm G AmThough I’d swear I heard them calling on the wind.
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FIn the waters evermore,
Dm G CForever there, one hundred feet from shore.
[Verse 2]
F G C F"Man the boats," I heard them cry, "the ship is going down."
Dm G C FSuch a storm has rocked her bow, she’s bound to run a-ground.
Dm G C FScramble down the towing lines, but many can’t escape,
Dm G C FFighting for their lives again, so close to home they wait.
{Chorus}
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FWe will hear their voice no more,
Dm G AmThough I’d swear I heard them calling on the wind.
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FIn the waters evermore,
Dm G CForever there, one hundred feet from shore.
[Verse 3]
Dm G C FMany swam through freezing water, for all that they could stand,
Dm G C FSodden boots and winter coats grew heavy with the damp.
Dm G C FStruggled on for precious life until it slipped from reach,
Dm G C FTheir souls arise to leave their bodies washed up on the beach.
{Chorus}
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FWe will hear their voice no more,
Dm G AmThough I’d swear I heard them calling on the wind.
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FIn the waters evermore,
Dm G CForever there, one hundred feet from shore.
[Verse 4]
Dm G C FDodging bullets, loading shells and hauling heavy gear,
Dm G C FThe war it couldn’t take them, but the sea holds nothing dear,
Dm G C FA hundred years and more it’s been, the sorrow lingers on,
Dm G C FFamilies keep the memories of the ones they lost so young.
{Chorus}
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FWe will hear their voice no more,
Dm G AmThough I’d swear I heard them calling on the wind.
F GOne hundred feet from shore,
C FIn the waters evermore,
Dm GAll in the oceans roar,
G FOne hundred feet from shore.
[Outro]
F GIn the waters evermore,
FOne hundred feet from shore.
