Intro:  D  A  
  
{D}Outer banks of North Carolina  
Lies a sleepy harbor town  
Generations of old sailors  
Dropped their sails and {G}settled down  
{D}Sam he is a young seafarer  
Grandson of a schooner man  
Catherine is a sail maker?s daughter  
Today he?s gonna {G}take her hand  
  
Chorus:  
  
{Bm}Calm {G}waters  
{Bm}Wish them {G}well  
His ship?s come in  
{A}She?s put the 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  
Sammy is a {G}dad to be  
  
Repeat chorus  
  
{D}January brought the fever  
Sam was right there by her side  
Doctor told him son I?m sorry  
But Catherine needs 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  
  
{Bm}Calm {G}waters  
{Bm}Wished him {G}well  
His ship came in   
But {A}she took the wind from his {D}sails  
His {G}ship came in   
But {A}she took the wind from his {D}sails
