Intro:

        piano w/bass and acoustic guitar:

         E .... G/A
        

        A/E.... A/C#m... A ... A/B
        
Verse 1:

        (w/piano, bass, and acoustic guitar)

                         E
        If there's one thing in my life that's missing
                  D
        It's the time that I spend alone
        A/C#                                   E
        Sailing on the cool and bright clear water

                 E
        There's lots of those friendly people
                  D
        They're showing me ways to go
             A/C#m                            E
        But I never want to lose their inspiration

Chorus:

        (w/piano, bass, and acoustic guitar 1st time)

         A    E
        Time for
         A     E
        Cool change
        A                 E
        I know that it's time
               B        E
        For a cool    change

             A           E
        And now that my life
        A           E
        Is so prearranged
        A                 E
        I know that it's time for a 
         B
        Cool change

        [1 (w/full band):  D/E  E]

Verse 2:

        Well, I was born in the sign of water
        And it's there that I feel my best
        The albatross and the whales they are my brothers

        It's kind of a special feeling
        When you're out on the sea alone
        Staring at the full moon like a lover

[repeat chorus]

Bridge:

              G
        I've never been romantic
             E
        And sometimes I don't care
           G
        I know it may sound selfish
             B                     E
        But let me breathe the air

Sax solo:

[verse chords; end on A/C#m D D/E as per intro]

Verse 3 (composite of first two verses):

        (w/piano)

                         E
        If there's one thing in my life that's missing
                  D
        It's the time that I spend alone
         A                                     E  A A/B
        Sailing on the cool and bright clear water

        (bass, acoustic guitar, and strings enter)

              E
        It's kind of a special feeling
         D
        Out on the sea alone
         A/C#m                            E
        Staring at the full moon like a lover

[repeat chorus 2X w/vocals; continue w/strings & sax to fade]
