Sailboats Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Sailboats wish that they were sta[A]rs,
Floating [Em]softly in the sky
[G]Among our dreams that
pay [D]goodbye

[Verse 2]
Moving [D]through transparent [A]space,
Drifting [Em]through the stratosphere
And [G]onward 'till they disappear
[A]

[Verse 3]
[D]
These continents from over[A]head
Look like [Em]tiny paper shapes
[G]Intricately set in [D]place

[Verse 4]
Below the [D]misty mountain [A]clouds
There's a [Em]lovely silver bay
Where [G]sunset sailors [A]often
hideaway
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]
Scuba [D]diver in the [Asus4]lock ,
[D][G]
Speedboat [Bm]driver on
[D]the [Asus4]dock[G]
Sailplane [D]pilot in the [A]blue take
me [Bm]up there with y[G]ou
The world looks [D]brighter
from this [G]high altitude
[Em][Asus4][A]

[Verse 6]
[G]I was wal[D]king through the tre[A]es
[Asus4](Sailboats wish they were[A] star[G]s)
And I was [D]swimming through the [A]sea[Asus4] s
[A](Cause they don't know who [G]they are)
I was [D]falling through the [A]air
When it [Bm]hit me right t[G]here
My eyes [D]are tired; I [G]don't even care

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]
[A][Em][G]
[D][A][Asus4][A][Em][G][A]
[D]

[Verse 7]
An airplane [D]carried me to [A]bed,
[Asus4][A]
Where I [Em]slept above the coast
And [G]dreamt I had become a [D]ghost

[Verse 8]
I sail [D]above the frozen [A]peaks,
Deep in [Em]cold cathedral caves
[G]Across the hills [A]and far
beyond the waves
[D]

[Verse 9]
[G]
Take the [D]car on the [Asus4]run[D][G]
Fly the [Bm]jet to the s[A]un[Asus4][A][G]
And bring [D]the spacecraft
'n [A]soon while I play [Bm]chess
with the [G]moon
I feel like [D]sleeping through this [G]cold
[Asus4]afternoon
[A]

[Verse 10]
[G]
Once [D]in [A]196[Asus4]4 (Sailboats wish
they [A]were [G]stars)
An actress [D]ran on the [A]shore (Cause they
don't know who [G]they are)

[Verse 11]
And though you'll [D]never re[A]turn,
I love you [Bm]Audrey [G]Hepburn
Sometimes [D]I can see your
[G]face in the [A]crowd

[Verse 12]
[G]
There are [D]sailboats throughout
[A]this brilliant sky[G]
But you can[D]not pick them [A]out
[Asus4]if you can't[A] fly[G]
I'm glad the [D]Earth doesn't [A]care
If [Bm]I go up the[G]re
If you [D]want to just [G]ask me
and I [A]will take you along

[Outro 1]
[D]
