Gm       F  
Do you remember
Bb  F    Gm7    F  D#  D#sus2
Standing on the shore,
     F
Your head in the clouds,
     D#      D           Gm      Gm7     
Your pockets filled with dreams.
Gm        F  
Bound for glory
       Bb F  Gm7  F  D# D#sus2
On the seven seas of life,
        F        D#    D        Gmadd9
But the ocean is deeper than it seems.

Gm           F  
The wind was with you
         Bb   F      Gm7 F   D# D#sus2
When you left on the morning tide,
    F
You set your sail
       D#    D       Gm   Gm7      Gm6
For an island in the sun,
Gm       F  
On the horizon,
Bb   F   Gm7 F  D# D#sus2 F
Dark clouds up ahead,
        D#        D      Gm   Gm7     
For the storm has just begun.

 Cm        G#  
   Take me with you,
   Bb            D#
   Take me far away,
 G#            Bbsus4 Bb      F      /F /E
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   Dmadd9      F
     Sail your ship
      Gsus4add9 Dmadd9 F Gsus4add9
     Across the water,
   Dmadd9        F
     Spread your wings
      Gsus4add9 Dmadd9 F Gsus4add9
     Across the sky.
   Gm7sus2    Bb      C6sus4
     Take the time to see
     Gm7sus2             Bb        C6sus4
     You’re the one, who holds the key,
   Bbadd9       C6              Gsus2
     Or sailing ships will pass you by.

Instrumental: :2/4: Gm | F

              F | D# D

Gm          F  
You cry for mercy,
         Bb    F      Gm7  F    D#   D#sus2
When you think you’ve lost your way,
    F
You drift alone,
   D#       D       Gm    Gm7     
If all your hope is gone.
    Gm                    F  
And find the strength and you will see
     Bb  F   Gm7    F    D#   D#sus2 F
That you controlled your destiny,
      D#    D         Gmadd9
After all is said and done.

 Cm           G#  
   So take me with you,
   Bb            D#
   Take me far away,
 G#            Bbsus4 Bb      F      /F /E
   And lead me to the distant shore.

Chorus:
   Dmadd9      F
     Sail your ship

     Spread your wings

     Across the sky.
