(Intro) C5  Ab5   C5   Ab5
(Verse 1)
C5
Waiting at the water's edge, watching all the ships
   Bb5     Eb5              Ab5      Bb5
As they are heading for the harbour wall;
      C5         Ab5     C5          Ab5
I was just a boy,     I was just a boy,
                C5         Ab5                 C5         Ab5
Dreaming of the wide world,       dreaming of the wide world,
(Verse 2)
C5
Watching as they disappear, reading out the names of
Bb5    Eb5            Ab5    Bb5
All the places I have never been;
        C5         Ab5        C5          Ab5
Looking out to sea,      looking out to sea,
              C5         Ab5              C5         Ab5
Dreaming of a wide world,      dreaming of a wide world,
(Chorus)
  F5        C5      F5       Bb5
Ooh,     Oooh,    Ooh,    Oooh, I wish I was
Eb5      Ab5    Eb5       Ab5   Eb5       Ab5  Bb5
Sailing away, sailing away, sailing away
     C5           Ab5    C5
With you tonight,      with you tonight
(Verse 3)
C5
Walking down another street, underneath the red lights
Bb5 Eb5                 Ab5      Bb5
I am watching where the shadows fall,
        C5         Ab5          C5          Ab5
Looking at the girls,    listening to the girls,
              C5         Ab5               C5         Ab5
Dreaming of a new world,     dreaming of that new world,
(Chorus)
F5        C5      F5       Bb5
Ooh,     Oooh,    Ooh,    Oooh, I wish I was
Eb5      Ab5    Eb5       Ab5   Eb5       Ab5  Bb5
Sailing away, sailing away, sailing away
        C5           Ab5        C5           Ab5
In your arms tonight,      in your arms tonight
(Outro)
             Eb5       Ab5   Eb5       Ab5
I wish I was sailing away, sailing away
Eb5       Ab5  Bb5    C5      Ab5     C5
Sailing away, with you now,      with you now.
C5   Ab5  C5 Ab5 (repeat to fade)
