To The Sea Chords

   
I'm actually not sure about the G in the verse, it sounds like it might be a G7 as well. 
If anyone has a good reason for one or the other, please let me know :) these are the 
chords without capo. For an easier version in A minor (capo 3) see below.

The wind is a-whipping through the open door

speaking of the sea and the rolling waves

Maybe there's a ship at the bottom now

or struggling on the surface with a cry for help
Fm
Wish I could forget and let the years go by
G                                     Cm
wish I could escape from my dreams of you

Cm
Twenty years ago was a howling storm

like the voice of a god from the great beyond
      Eb
I was standing on the shore as the sky grew dark

with a hand on a bible and a hand on my heart
Fm
Wish I could forget and let the years go by
G                                     Cm

Empty were the coffins and the house where we lived

as the grave that I dug by our place on the beach

How I wish the water could be poured out of the sea

so I can go and get you back ashore with me
