Fmaj C
Sailboats wish that they were stars,
Gm
Floating softly in the sky
Bb
Among our dreams that pay goodbye
Fmaj C
Moving through transparent space,
Gm
Drifting through the stratosphere
Bb C
And onward 'till they disappear
Fmaj C
These continents from overhead
Gm
Look like tiny paper shapes
Bb
Intricately set in place
Fmaj C
Below the misty mountain clouds
Gm
Theres a lovely silver bay
Bb C Fmaj
Where sunset sailors often hideaway
Bb Fmaj C
Scuba diver in the lock,
Bb Fmaj C
Speedboat driver on the dock
Bb Fmaj C Dm Bb
Sailplane pilot in the blue take me up there with you
Fmaj Bb C
The world looks brighter from this high altitude
Bb Fmaj C
I was walking through the trees (Sailboats wish they were stars)
Bb Fmaj C
And I was swimming through the sea (Cause they don't know who
they are)
Bb Fmaj C
I was falling through the air
Dm Bb
When it hit me right there...
Fmaj Bb C
My eyes are tired; I don't even care

Fmaj C
An airplane carried me to bed,
Gm
Where i slept above the coast
Bb
And dreamt I had become a ghost
Fmaj C
I sail above the frozen peaks,
Gm
Deep in cold cathedral caves
Bb C Fmaj
Across the hills and far beyond the waves
Bb Fmaj C
Take the car on the lawn
Bb Fmaj C
Fly the jet to the sun
Bb Fmaj
And bring the spacecraft
C Dm Bb
'n soon while I play chess with the moon
Fmaj Bb C
I feel like sleeping through this cold afternoon
Bb Fmaj C
Once in 1964 (Sailboats wish they were stars)
Bb Fmaj C
An actress ran on the shore (Cause they don't know who they are)
Bb Fmaj C
And though you'll never return,
Dm
I love you Audrey Hepburn
Bb Fmaj Bb C
Sometimes I can see your face in the crowd
Bb Fmaj C
There are sailboats throughout this brilliant sky
Bb Fmaj C
But you cannot pick them out if you can't fly
Bb Fmaj C
I'm glad the Earth doesn't care
Dm
If I go up there
Bb Fmaj Bb C
If you want to just ask me and I'll take you along..
