(D) Outer banks of North Carolina

grandson of a schooner man
Catherine is a sail makers' daughter
today he's gonna (G) take her hand

(A) Calm (G) waters, (A) wish them (G) well
his (Em) ships' come (F#) in, (G) she's put the (A) wind in his (D) sails
(D) Catherine is a canvas painter
paints the sun and sand and sea
lately she's been painting a portrait
Sam he is a (G) dad to be
Repeat Chorus 1:
(D) January brought the fever
Sam was right there by her side
doctor told him son, I'm sorry,
but Catherine need your (G) prayers tonight
(D) Morning light brought Sam a daughter
fever took his better half
Sam gave Catherine to the water
as he held their baby (G) to his chest
Chorus 2:
(A) Calm (G) waters, (A) wished him (G) well
his (Em) ship came (F#) in, but (G) she took the (A) wind from his (D) sails
