       A E F#m7 E | D D

       E | D C#
       F#m F#m7 | F#m7

       F#m | E
       A E F#m7 E | D D

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

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

 Bm        G
   Take me with you,
   A             D
   Take me far away,
 G             A              E
   And lead me to the distant shore.

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

Instrumental: :2/4: F#m | E

              E | D C#
              F#m F#m7 | F#m

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

 Bm           G
   So take me with you,
   A             D
   Take me far away,
 G             A              E
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   C#m         E
     Sail your ship
      F#        C#m    E F#
     Across the water,
   C#m           E
     Spread your wings
      F#        C#m    E F#
     Across the sky.
   F#m7       A       B

     You’re the one, who holds the key,
   A            B
     Or sailing ships will pass,
   A         B
     Sailing ships will pass you,
   A         B                   F#
     Sailing ships will pass you by…
