       D#m | C#
       F# C# D#m7 C# | B B

       C# | B Bb
       D#m D#m7 | D#m7

       D#m | C#
       F# C# D#m7 C# | B B

       C# | B Bb

D#m      C#
Do you remember
F#  C#   D#m7   C# B
Standing on the shore,
     C#
Your head in the clouds,
     B       Bb          D#m     D#m7
Your pockets filled with dreams.
D#m       C#
Bound for glory
       F# C# D#m7 C# B
On the seven seas of life,
        C#       B     Bb       D#m
But the ocean is deeper than it seems.

D#m          C#
The wind was with you
         F#   C#     D#m7 C# B
When you left on the morning tide,
    C#
You set your sail
       B     Bb      D#m  D#m7     D#m
For an island in the sun,
         C#
On the horizon,
F#   C#  D#m7 C# B       C#
Dark clouds up ahead,
        B         Bb     D#m  D#m7
For the storm has just begun.

 G#m       E
   Take me with you,
   F#            B
   Take me far away,
 E             F#             C#
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   Bbm         C#
     Sail your ship
      D#        Bbm    C# D#
     Across the water,
   Bbm           C#
     Spread your wings
      D#        Bbm    C# D#
     Across the sky.
   D#m7       F#      G#
     Take the time to see
     D#m7                F#        G#
     You’re the one, who holds the key,
   F#           G#              D#
     Or sailing ships will pass you by.

              C# | B Bb
              D#m D#m7 | D#m

D#m         C#
You cry for mercy,
         F#    C#     D#m7 C#   B
When you think you’ve lost your way,
    C#
You drift alone,
   B        Bb      D#m   D#m7
If all your hope is gone.
    D#m                   C#
And find the strength and you will see
     F#  C#  D#m7   C#   B          C#
That you controlled your destiny,
      B     Bb        D#m
After all is said and done.

 G#m          E
   So take me with you,
   F#            B
   Take me far away,
 E             F#             C#
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   Bbm         C#
     Sail your ship

     Sailing ships will pass you by…
