come sail away chords
sty

xc Dm Em Dm C G

C Em Am Am/G/F
i’m sailing away ,
G
set an open course for the virgin sea
C Em Am Am/G/F
’cause i’ve got to be free ,
G
free to face the life that’s ahead of me

Am G
on board i’m the captain , so climb aboard
Am G
we’ll search for tomorrow , on every shore
C G Am Am/G/F
and i’ll try , oh lord , i’ll try ,
G C
to carry on

C Dm Em Dm C G

C Em Am Am/G/F
i look to the sea ,
G
reflections in the waves spark my memory
C Em Am Am/G/F
some happy , some sad ,
G
i think of childhood friends , and the dreams we had

Am G
we lived happily forever , so the story goes
Am G
but somehow we missed out , on the pot of gold
C G Am Am/G/F
but we’ll try , best that we can ,
G C
to carry on

C F
a gathering of angels ,
G C
appeared above my head
F
they sang to me this song of hope ,
G C
and this is what they said , they said

C F
come sail away , come sail away ,
C F
come sail away with me , lads

C F
come sail away , come sail away ,
C F
come sail away with me

C F
come sail away , come sail away ,
C F
come sail away with me , lads
C F
come sail away , come sail away ,
C F
come sail away with me

C F
i thought that they were angels ,
G C
but much to my surprise;
F
we climbed aboard their starship ,
G C
and headed for the skies

C F
come sail away , come sail away ,
C F
come sail away with me , lads
C F
come sail away , come sail away ,
C F
come sail away with me 5
