Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][F#m][Bm][D][G][Em]
[G][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]Put me
somewhere east of mid[F#m]night
[Bm]West of the turn[G]pike
[D]Any[G]where [D]I wander[Em] is[G]
[A]where I'll take [G]my rest
As [D]I lie [G]down,
[A]toss some thoughts [Bm]around
[A]Dreams I'm [G]told will come true if you
Believe in those who love you
right [D]now[F#m][Bm][A]
[G]Sea of dreams I long for you
Forget about the others
This is [D]my [G]hike,
[A]you can com[D]e if [A]you like
To feel good, I would help you if I could
[G]But I am out here searching
For [D]the things that might have been
[G]I need no more [D]reminders
[Em]Not one love lette[D]r have[G] I see[A]n
And [Bm]that's a [A]pretty good [G]start
The ocean is where lovers [D]meet again
[G]Sea of dreams by all means
Float me out of danger until [D]then
[G]Forever [A]ame[D]n[A][D][F#m]
[Bm][D][G][D][Em][G]

[Verse 2]
[A]
It's [D]a long long [G]hike
[A]We'll be leavin' ear[Bm]ly tra[A]velin' lig[G]ht[A]
[G][A][D][Bm][A][G][A][G][A]
[D][G][D][A]
That's alright Heaven will

[Verse 3]
be ours tonight
[G]The road is paved with moonbeams
There are [D]faces that I knew
They [G]all came back to haunt [D]me
But [Em]that ain't fair to the
[D]folks like [G]me [A]and you
It [Bm]takes a [A]bit of my [G]heart[A]
[G]To night I shall be watching
from [D]the shore[Bm][A]
[G]Sea of dreams from now on
Forget about all the others
Back where [D]the line [G]forms
[A]Destin[D]ation sea [A]of storms
By all means ever onward sea
of dreams
[D][G]

[Verse 4]
[A][D][A]
Put me [D]somewhere east
of mid[F#m]night[Bm]
Along about [A]day[D]light
[G]Anywhe[D]re I wan[Em]der is[G]
[A]where I'll take my rest
If we could [D]just lie [G]down
[A]Toss some thoughts aro[Bm]und[A]
[G][D][F#m][Bm][A][G]
[A][G]
It's a [D]tough and a dirty long [G]hike
[A]You can com[D]e if [A]you like[G]
[A][G][A][D][Bm][A][G][A]
[G]
If [A]we could [D]just lie [G]down
[D]Toss some thoughts around
