Following My Compass by Kristen Hall
Following My Compass
Tuning: E A D G B E
no capo, open chords
[Verse 1]
G Am D
I am a navigator of the seas
G Am D
I built the ocean from my tears
G Am D Am
I go whichever way the wind might blow
Am D Am Cmaj7
I've been drifting for what seems a hundred years
D Am D
tragically not knowing I could steer
[Verse 2]
G Am D
the waves feel like a love I thought I knew
G Am D
I hold my breath while we ascend
G Am D Am
and love is nothing but a memory now
Am D Am Cmaj7
like the port of every place I've ever been
Cmaj7 D Am D
and the sails feel like my only friend
[Chorus]
G Am D
I've been looking for a special place
G Am D
just for me and no one else
G Am D
and if you want me you can find me
Am D Am Cmaj7
I'll be crossing the Atlantic without charts
Cmaj7 D Am Cmaj7
I'm the Ferdinand Magellan of these parts
Cmaj7 Am D
I'm just following my compass
Cmaj7 Am G
following my compass in the dark
[Verse 3]
G Am D
the wind is with me under coral skies
G Am D
and in my wake I leave behind
G Am D Am
a trail of others who will never seek
Am D Am Cmaj7
and because they never seek, they never find
D Am D
and they argue that it's all a waste of time
[Verse 4]
G Am D
today marks twenty years of endless seas
G Am D
and true I'm weathered from her storms
G Am D Am
my sails are ragged but my sights are set
Am D Am Cmaj7
on the comfort of a more forgiving shore
Cmaj7 D Am D
and a life that's more worth living for
[Chorus]
G Am D
I've been looking for a special place
G Am D
just for me and no one else
G Am D
and if you want me you can find me
Am D Am Cmaj7
I'll be crossing the Atlantic without charts
Cmaj7 D Am Cmaj7
I'm the Ferdinand Magellan of these parts
Cmaj7 Am D
I'm just following my compass
Cmaj7 Am G
following my compass in the dark
[Repeat chorus]
G Am D
I've been looking for a special place
G Am D
just for me and no one else
G Am D
and if you want me you can find me
Am D Am Cmaj7
I'll be crossing the Atlantic without charts
Cmaj7 D Am Cmaj7
I'm the Ferdinand Magellan of these parts
Cmaj7 Am D
I'm just following my compass
Cmaj7 Am G
following my compass in the dark
