Sail Me Away

verse 1
 
     A 
When stars are born. 
    Bm/A 
Are they cast out? 
   E                      D       A 
To wander cold and lonely lost in space. 
  Cdim7 
A loveless point of light 
             Bm 
That can't return. 
   Bm7            E 
Forever fixed within one place. 

verse 2 
     A                Bm/A 
When love is lost and dreams are cast. 
     E                           D       A 
Like bruised and battered pieces left to die. 
     Cdim7 
When hands that reach out are betrayed. 
    Bm              Bm7           E 
How can my tortured soul survive? 

Bridge 
             C#m       F#m 
There's only one thing left. 
               D                       E 
And that's the one thing that I needed most of all. 
        C#m               F#m 
But the freedom that I've gained 
       Bm               Bm/A           G        G/F#   E 
Is the loss that led me aimless to the shore. 


[Refrão]
        A     C#m7             F#m    F#m/E 
And I'm borne high on these waves. 
D            A/C#     E 
Swept by the wind and alone. 
A             C#m7                D       E 
Sail me away, carry me back to my home. 
    D 
I'm tired, I've been torn. 
  E/D                  C#7           C#7/E      F#m 
A cruel wretched storm churns like a gale in my bones. 
   F#m/E   Bm 
Oh sail me away. 
D/E      E          Dadd2 
Carry me back to my home. 

verse 3 
      A 
These scars run deep. 
    Bm/A                  E                     D       A 
The future holds a hunger for an innocence that passed away. 
   Cdim7           A 
My callous shadows mock. 
                  Bm               Bm7           E 
And make it clear some things were not enough to make them stay. 

Bridge 
           C#m         F#m 
The moment time stands still 
       D                         E 
Is the moment that the writing's on the walls. 
    C#m                F#m 
The words are clear as ringing bells 
     Bm               Bm/A             G        G/F#   E 
That pride is present right before the fall. 


[Refrão]
        A     C#m7             F#m    F#m/E 
And I'm borne high on these waves. 
D            A/C#     E 
Swept by the wind and alone. 
A                 C#m7                D       E 
Oh, sail me away, carry me back to my home. 
    D 
I'm tired, I've been torn. 
  E/D                  C#7           C#7/E      F#m 
A cruel wretched storm churns like a gail in my bones. 
   F#m/E   Bm 
Oh sail me away. 
D/E      E          Dadd2 
Carry me back to my home. 
F#m/E   Bm 
Sail me away! 
D/E      E          Dadd2   A 
Carry me back to my home!
