       Bb | C C | G | G

Am       G
Do you remember
C   G    Am7    G  F
Standing on the shore,
     G
Your head in the clouds,
     F       E           Am      Am7
Your pockets filled with dreams.
Am        G
Bound for glory
       C G   Am7  G  F
On the seven seas of life,
        G        F     E        Am
But the ocean is deeper than it seems.

Am           G
The wind was with you
         C    G      Am7 G   F
When you left on the morning tide,
    G
You set your sail
       F     E       Am   Am7      Am
For an island in the sun,
         G
On the horizon,
C    G   Am7 G  F        G
Dark clouds up ahead,
        F         E      Am   Am7
For the storm has just begun.

 Dm        Bb
   Take me with you,
   C             F
   Take me far away,
 Bb            C              G
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   Em          G
     Sail your ship
      A         Em     G A
     Across the water,
   Em            G
     Spread your wings
      A         Em     G A
     Across the sky.
   Am7        C       D
     Take the time to see
     Am7                 C         D
     You’re the one, who holds the key,
   C            D               A
     Or sailing ships will pass you by.

Instrumental: :2/4: Am | G
              C G Am7 G | F F

              G | F E
              Am Am7 | Am

Am          G
You cry for mercy,
         C     G      Am7  G    F
When you think you’ve lost your way,
    G
You drift alone,
   F        E       Am    Am7
If all your hope is gone.
    Am                    G
And find the strength and you will see
     C   G   Am7    G    F          G
That you controlled your destiny,
      F     E         Am
After all is said and done.

 Dm           Bb
   So take me with you,
   C             F
   Take me far away,
 Bb            C              G
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   Em          G
     Sail your ship
      A         Em     G A
     Across the water,

     Spread your wings
      A         Em     G A
     Across the sky.

     Sailing ships will pass you by…
