G           C      D 

[Verse 1]
D                     G
I put a message in a bottle
                         C
And I walked down to the sea
                         D
Like the waves upon the water
C                               G D
The thought kept coming back to me
D                                G
This whole world could use some lovin’
                   C
Just some simple TLC
                       D
I put a message in a bottle
C         D               G
I made a wish and set it free

[Chorus]
D                     G
I put a message in a bottle
                        C
Then I asked the stars above
                     D
For anybody who may find it
                       G
To open happiness and love
D                            G
And hear sounds of children laughing
                           C
And people dancing in the streetse
                      D
I put a message in a bottle
C      D
Made a wish and set it

G        C           D

Free

[Verse 2]
D                           G
I guess I’ve always been a dreamer
                               C
But I’ve seen where dreams can lead
                         D
For in the hearts of all believers
C            D        G
There’s only possibility
D                        G
I hope it sees a billon faces
                          C
I hope it goes a million miles
                      D
I put a message in a bottle
C            D                   G
And hope it brings this world a smile

[Chorus]
D                     G
I put a message in a bottle
                        C
Then I asked the stars above
                         D
For anybody who may find it
                       G
To open happiness and love
D                               G
And hear the sounds of children laughing
                           C
And people dancing in the streets
                     D
I put a message in a bottle
C       D
made a wish and set it
G        C          D

free

[Bridge]
Am                       G/B
For everyone of us has a message
C                    G
A purpose and a destiny
Am                         G/B
If you put a message in a bottle
C                        D
What would that message be

[Chorus]
N c                  A
I put a message in a bottle
                      D
Then I asked the lord above
                      E
For anybody who may find it
                       A
To open happiness and love
E                               A
And hear the sounds of children laughing
                           D
And people dancing in the streets
                     E
I put a message in a bottle
D       E               A
made a wish and set it free

A         D        E


A                     E
