Bm       A
Do you remember
D   A    Bm7    A  G
Standing on the shore,
     A
Your head in the clouds,
     G       F#          Bm      Bm7
Your pockets filled with dreams.
Bm        A
Bound for glory
       D A   Bm7  A  G
On the seven seas of life,
        A        G     F#       Bm
But the ocean is deeper than it seems.

Bm           A
The wind was with you
         D    A      Bm7 A   G
When you left on the morning tide,
    A
You set your sail
       G     F#      Bm   Bm7      Bm
For an island in the sun,
         A
On the horizon,
D    A   Bm7 A  G        A
Dark clouds up ahead,
        G         F#     Bm   Bm7
For the storm has just begun.

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

Chorus:
   F#m         A
     Sail your ship
      B         F#m    A B
     Across the water,
   F#m           A
     Spread your wings
      B         F#m    A B
     Across the sky.
   Bm7        D       E
     Take the time to see
     Bm7                 D         E
     You’re the one, who holds the key,
   D            E               B
     Or sailing ships will pass you by.

Bm          A
You cry for mercy,
         D     A      Bm7  A    G
When you think you’ve lost your way,
    A
You drift alone,
   G        F#      Bm    Bm7
If all your hope is gone.
    Bm                    A
And find the strength and you will see
     D   A   Bm7    A    G          A
That you controlled your destiny,
      G     F#        Bm
After all is said and done.

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

Chorus:
   F#m         A
     Sail your ship
      B         F#m    A B

     Spread your wings
      B         F#m    A B
     Across the sky.

     Or sailing ships will pass,
   D         E
     Sailing ships will pass you,

     Sailing ships will pass you by…
