_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
Last autumn's [F#] leaves cling [G#m] to your feet _ Like _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
[F#] they're frozen in the salty [B] tears _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ The [A] waves they _ [Em] trespass [B] on freedom _ _ _ Breaking [F#] _ _ over the _ casualty [E] of years
_ [E] _
_ _ _ [B] _ The shells [F#] lay broken [G#m] and scattered _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ Remnants of a [F#] beauty once [B] so frail
_ A _ _ [E] _ passion _ [E] unleashed [B] and _ _ unshackled _ [B] _
_ _ [F#] Scarring all the _ [E] uncharted trails
_ [G#m] _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ But [E] I would love to take you [F#] sailing _ [B] _
Over that uncertain sea
_ [E]
Where the waves wash away all your _ [B]
vanity _ _ And _ _ [E]
though that [F#] feeling is foreign to [B] you
At the _ [E] borderline you're left [B] alone I would love [E] to build a boat
[A] _ _ That would [F#] carry you home The _
_ [B] _ [F#] tide it only gains and [G#m] then _ _ recedes _ _ _
_ It is [F#] never constant for [B] complaints _ _ There _ _ [E] _
is no [B] assurance of what you _ need
_ _ _ _ [F#]
Only what you want and what [E] you [G#m] ain't _ _ [B] _ _ The chill it [F#] is spoken on [G#m] the shore _
When _ _ [C#m] _ _ first [F#] indulged upon the [B] sand _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ The ocean it is only [B] like a whore _
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ Who's been used to [E] many a man _ _
[G#m] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
But [E] I would love to take [F#] you sailing _
_ [B] Over that uncertain sea
[E] _ Where the waves [F#] wash away all your [B] _
vanity _ _ And _ [E] _
though that [F#] feeling is foreign to [B] you
At the borderline you're left alone [E]
I would love to build [E] a boat
That would carry [F#] you home
So _ _
_ [B] _ _ bring your [F#] blanket [C#m] close to the [G#m] edge So _ [C#] _ _
_ _ close you [F#] can feel the [F#]
[B] ocean's wealth
_ _ _ _ _ [E]
The rhythm of the moon's [B] only _ _ mistress That _ [F#] _
teases you into being _ [E] something else
_ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _ [B] The storm it [F#] is forging in its [G#m] wisdom _ On _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _
[F#] the lazy and the beggared [B] guilt _
For _ _ [E] _ _ those [A] who take the sea [B] for granted _ _ Wash _ [F#] away the sand on which their [E] love is built _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
But I would love to take you [F#] sailing _
[B] _ Over that uncertain sea
[E] Where the waves wash [F#] away all your [B] _
vanity _ _ And _ [E] _
though that [F#] feeling is foreign to [B] you
At the borderline you're left alone [E] _
I would love to build a boat
_ That would carry [F#] you home
[F#] I _ [E] would love to build a [A] boat That _ would [F#] carry you home _
