F                            C
Sailboats wish that they were stars,
          Gm
Floating softly in the sky
 Bb
Among our dreams that pay goodbye


F                         C
Moving through transparent space, 
          Gm
Drifting through the stratosphere
  Bb                   C
And onward 'till they disappear


F                       C
These continents from overhead
          Gm
Look like tiny paper shapes
Bb
Intricately set in place


F                      C
Below the misty mountain clouds
          Gm
Theres a lovely silver bay
      Bb              C         F
Where sunset sailors often hideaway


 Bb        F         C       
	Scuba diver in the lock, 
 Bb            F          C
	Speedboat driver on the dock
 Bb            F          C           Dm             Bb
	Sailplane pilot in the blue take me up there with you
                      F               Bb      C
	The world looks brighter from this high altitude


 Bb        F                 C       
	I was walking through the trees (Sailboats wish they were stars)
 Bb            F                 C
	And I was swimming through the sea (Cause they don't know who 
	they are)
 Bb         F               C
	I was falling through the air
             Dm            Bb
	When it hit me right there...
                 F     Bb         C  
	My eyes are tired; I don't even care

F, C, Gm, Bb
F, C, Gm, Bb, C


F                       C
An airplane carried me to bed, 
         Gm
Where i slept above the coast 
     Bb
And dreamt I had become a ghost


F                     C
I sail above the frozen peaks,
         Gm
Deep in cold cathedral caves
  Bb                  C             F 
Across the hills and far beyond the waves


Bb            F        C
	Take the car on the lawn
Bb           F	    C	
	Fly the jet to the sun
Bb                   F
	And bring the spacecraft
          C                Dm             Bb
	'n soon while I play chess with the moon
                  F                  Bb        C 
	I feel like sleeping through this cold afternoon


Bb          F C                            
	Once in 1964 (Sailboats wish they were stars)
Bb              F        C
	An actress ran on the shore (Cause they don't know who they are)


Bb                     F     C
	And though you'll never return,
                Dm             
	I love you Audrey Hepburn
Bb            F            Bb          C     
	Sometimes I can see your face in the crowd


Bb             F             C
	There are sailboats throughout this brilliant sky
Bb              F           C
	But you cannot pick them out if you can't fly
Bb               F            C
	I'm glad the Earth doesn't care
        Dm        
	If I go up there
Bb           F        Bb              C
	If you want to just ask me and I'll take you along..
