verse 1: 
       
On a cold winter's night, with the storm at its height 
  F                     C 
A lifeboat answered the call 
     G                C               E7                Am 
They pitched and they tossed, 'til we thought they were lost 
      D                        G 
As we watched from the harbour wall  


verse 2: 
           C          
Though the night was pitch black, there was no turning back 
    F                       E 
For someone was waiting out there 
    F                     C             Am 
And each volunteer had to live with his fear 
        D                  G     G/F  G/E 
As they joined in a silent prayer 

 
G/D      C           F             C 
Carry us home, home, home from the sea 
F         C      Dm         G  
Angels of mercy, answer our plea   
             C           F             C 
And carry us home, home, home from the sea 
F        C       Dm  G         C     F  C  G  C 
Carry us safely, home from the sea 

   
verse 3: 
          
As they battled their way past the mouth of the bay 
       F                    C 
It was blowing like never before 
        G         C             E7          Am 
As they gallantly fought, every one of them thought 
   D                      G 
Of loved ones back on the shore  


verse 4: 
       C 
Then a flicker of light and they knew they were right 
          F                     E 
There she was on the crest of a wave 
         F                           C       Am 
She's an old fishing boat, and she's barely afloat 
        D                           G     G/F  G/E 
"Please God, there are souls we can save!" 

 
    G/D        C           F             C 
And carry them home, home, home from the sea 
F         C      Dm         G  
Angels of mercy, answer our plea   
             C           F             C 
And carry us home, home, home from the sea 
F        C       Dm  G         C     F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C 
Carry us safely, home from the sea 

VERSE 5: 
      
And back in the town, in a street that runs down 
       F                   C 
To the sea and the harbour wall 
         G           C            E7          Am 
They had gathered in pairs at the foot of the stairs 
   D                  G 
To wait for the radio call   


VERSE 6: 
    C 
And just before dawn, when all hope was gone 
       F                  E 
Came a hush and a faraway sound 
          F                        C         Am 
'Twas the cox'n he roared, "All survivors on board!" 
      D                      G     G/F  G/E 
Thank God and we're homeward bound   


   G/D        C           F             C 
To carry them home, home, home from the sea 
F         C      Dm         G  
Angels of mercy, answer our plea   
               C           F             C 
And carry them home, home, home from the sea 
F          C       Dm  G         C   G 
Carry them safely, home from the sea 


D           G             D 
Home, home, home from the sea 
G         D      Em         A  
Angels of mercy, answer our plea   
               D           G             D 
And carry them home, home, home from the sea 
G          D      Em  A         D 
Carry them safely home from the sea
