Originally recorded on Now Take Flight

AmBuild (x02210@1)me a boat deep in your heart,
       C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)                     AmOn (x02210@1)the currents of your soul, I will row, I will chart
Am (x02210@1)
My journey will be, this story my own
        C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)                AmAs (x02210@1)we wander side by side into the great unknown

Am (x02210@1)
Throw me a bone, cast me a line
          C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)                 AmLight (x02210@1)my cigarette and I will open your bottle of wine
AmBut (x02210@1)I won't taste a drop, won't make a scene
       C (x32010@1)                   G (320003@1)                    AmI (x02210@1)will live my life on the edge of that gorgeous ravine

CHORUS:
    E (022100@1)G (320003@1)        C (x32010@1)            DBut (xx0232@1)oh, would it be to hold the sun?
   E (022100@1)    G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)                  C (x32010@1)       AmOh, (x02210@1)it aint me, your light shines down on everyone



Sing me a tune about me and you 
Sing of the holy road and the phases of the Aries moon
But don't string me along, don't shelter me where I stand
Yeah, I know what it's like to be the one with the hammer in your hand

CHORUS:
But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone
My baby the sun

So, build me a boat deep in your heart
Hold me there forever more, long after we part
'Cause I'm reading the birds, walking a line
You will live in me, my darlin', till the end of time

CHORUS:
But oh, would it be to hold the sun?
Oh, it aint me, your light shines down on everyone
My baby the sun
