Capo 3 fret

[Verse 1]
C       F
On a sailboat I am
Am            Dm
Slowly floating nowhere
C          F          Am           G
Lost the memories of where I am and why
 
 
[Verse 2]
C       F
Black ocean churning
Am            Dm
A million stars are burning
C          F          Am           G
Planetariums were right about the sky
 
 
[Chorus]
F           C        Em        F
Once upon a day I set off on a journey
C                               Em      Dm
Wishing on the wind to take me far from home
F              C             G         D
Now I'm on the waves and I'm taking on water
Dm        C         Em    Bb  C
Hard to see I won't always be alone
 
 
[Verse 3]
C             F             Am                Dm
There was a time when August sun was high and centered on me
C         F             Am                 G
But it dipped behind my back and settled down
C            F                   Am            Dm         C
It used to square up with the land, used to size it in my hand
C            F          Am                 G
But it fell behind the line that meets the sky
 
 
[Chorus]
F           C        Em        F
Once upon a day I set off on a journey
C                               Em      Dm
Wishing on the wind to take me far from home
F              C             G         D
Now I'm on the waves and I'm taking on water
Dm        C         Em    Bb  C
Hard to see I won't always be alone
 
 
[Bridge]
Am  C        F
Inside this storm
                Am        C       F
Whipping in the wind, my sail is torn
C                          Bb               F     C   Em  Bb
In other words, the ends I mend are not my own ooooooh ooooooh
F    C   F  Bb F   C   G   D
Oooohs
Dm        C         Em    Bb  C
Hard to see I won't always be alone
 
 
[Verse 4]
C       F
On a sailboat I am
Am            Dm
Slowly floating nowhere
C          F          Am           G            C
Hoping someday I'll wash upon someone else's shore
