C-G-Am-G-C-G-Am-G

G                             C
You are the first shoots that break after rain,
D                            G
Unfolding your first shining leaves,
                       C                         D
You are the sun on the stone in the morning that glows,
G                          C
Now that the sun has gone out of my life,
D                           G
A heart becomes still as it grieves,
                       C                 D
And only your love can follow wherever I go.

         C   G  D           G     D    Em
Though I try to cry, I just don't know why,
         C    G   Am      D
For your love has left me warm,
          C     G     D    G      D       Em
Though my tears won't flow, in my heart I know,
     C                   D                 G     D-Em-D-C-G-Am-D
It's you, the port in my storm, port in my storm.

G                             C
Fields and wild meadows, they flow in your hair,
D                         G
Dawn breaks each time you smile,
                       C                          D
With you the wisdom of children before they're of age,
   G                         C
Oh now that the sun has gone out of my life,
D                   G
Travelled a million miles,
                   C                        D
Only your love can show me the keys to this cage.

         C   G  D           G     D    Em
Though I try to cry, I just don't know why,
         C    G   Am      D
For your love has left me warm,
          C     G     D    G      D       Em
Though my tears won't flow, in my heart I know,
     C                   D                               G
It's you, the port in my storm, it's you, the port in my storm.

D-Em-D-C-G-Am-D

      C                          G           D
And I know that we'll meet again one day you see,
         Em                     Am
When the storm will be over for you and for me,
    C                        G               D
Til then I'll hold you in my soul and you'll be,
    Em                          Am                D
The bright morning sun that can calm these raging seas.

     C   G  D           G     D    Em
Oh I try to cry, I just don't know why,
         C    G   Am      D
For your love has left me warm,
      C     G     D    G      D       Em
Oh my tears won't flow, in my heart I know,
     C                   D                               G
It's you, the port in my storm, it's you, the port in my storm.

D-Em-D-C-G-Am-D-G-D-Em-D-C-G-Am-D

G          D         Em           D          C    G-Em-D
You're the port in my, you're the port in my storm.
