Dsus2 D 

 
Dsus2                   D 
  So many years ago but I remember 
Dsus2                     A    D 
  A distant sunset on the open sea 
Dsus2               D 
  Fascinated by the sailing ships 
     Dsus2                        A           D 
On a crimson shore that seemed to call out to me  


G                                D        A 
  I still can feel the hope that fills my heart 
G                       A 
  I still can taste the ocean breeze (sail away) 


 
     D     Dsus2      Dsus4    D 
As I sail away to the farthest reaches 
G          Gmaj7      G6         Gmaj7 
Follow the sun to the white sand beaches 
  Bm 
I only know what the west wind teaches 
          A 
Won't you sail away with me? 

       D           Dsus2       Dsus4   D 
(Sail away) made a wish upon a falling star 
       G          Gmaj7                 G6       Gmaj7 
(Sail away) never thought that we would get this far (sail away) 
  Bm                      G 
I won't be lonely you can be my only 
          A              D 
Won't you sail away with me?  

Dsus2 D 


 
Dsus2                D 
For a while I almost gave up dreaming 
    Dsus2                    A          D 
But still this image stayed alive in my soul 
Dsus2                           D 
  While I was working trying to make a living 
   Dsus2                       A         D 
My so-called life was spinning out of control  


G                         D          A 
  Summer wind was blowing through my head 
G                        A 
  The endless current of my dreams (sail away) 


 
     D     Dsus2      Dsus4    D 
As I sail away to the farthest reaches 
G          Gmaj7      G6         Gmaj7 
Follow the sun to the white sand beaches 
  Bm                 G 
I only know what the west wind teaches 
          A 
Won't you sail away with me? 

       D          Dsus2    Dsus4    D 
(Sail away) Sail away to a land without time 
G        Gmaj7        G6         Gmaj7 
Drink my water from a shell that I find 
  Bm                      G 
I won't be lonely you can be my only 
          A              D 
Won't you sail away with me?  

Dsus2 D 


 
           Bm                  A 
Oh, let me take you there to another land 
        Bm                G 
Don't expect the world to understand (Sail away) 


{Key change +2} 

       D      Dsus2       Dsus4      D 
We can sail away while we still have time 
          G       Gmaj7         G6      Gmaj7 
There's a million places that I have in mind 
      D        Dsus2       Dsus4 D 
As we cast our fate to the open sea 
A 
Sail away with me 

       D           Dsus2       Dsus4   D 
(Sail away) Made a wish upon a falling star 
G       Gmaj7                 G6       Gmaj7 
  Never thought that we would get this far 
D         Dsus2         Dsus4      D 
Try and imagine how our life would be 
             A              D 
If you could sail away with me 
        G  D  A 
Woohoho Ho Wo-ho 
        Bm A  D 
Woohoho Ho Wo-ho 
        G  D  A 
Woohoho Ho Wo-ho 
        Bm A  D 
Woohoho Ho Wo-ho 
        G  D  A 
Woohoho Ho Wo-ho 

      D   Dsus2 Dsus4 D

      D
