G                                 D
  Sailboats wish that they were stars,
          Am
Floating softly in the sky,
C
Among our dreams that bid goodbye,
G                          D
 Moving thru transparent space,
          Am
Drifting thru the stratosphere,
    C
And onwards 'til they disappear,
G                           D
 These continents from overhead,
           Am
Look like tiny paper shapes,
C
Intricately set in place,
G                           D
 Below the misty mountain clouds,
           Am
There’s a lovely silver bay,
       C                          G
Where sunset sailors often hide away,

Am                    D
  Scuba-diver in the loch,
Am                          D
  Speed-boat driver on the dock,
Am                         D                          Am
   Sailboat pilot in the blue, take me up there with you,
                                    C        D
The world looks brighter from this high altitude,
Am                         D
  I was walking thru the trees,
Am                             D
  And I was swimming thru the seas,
Am                        D
  I was falling thru the air,
                      Am
When it hit me right there,
                         C          D
My eyes are tired and I don’t even care,

G                           D
 An airplane carried me to bed,
         Am
Where I slept above the coast,
      C
And dreamt I had become a ghost,
G                           D
 I sailed above the frozen peaks,
         Am
Deep in cold cathedral caves,
   C                                 G
Across the caves and far beyond the waves,

Am                    D
  Take the car on the run,
Am                        D
  And fly the jet to the sun,
Am                             D
  And bring the spacecraft in soon,
                             Am
While I play chess with the moon,
                                C        D
I feel like sleeping thru this cold afternoon,
Am           D Am                         D
  Once in 1964,   an actress ran on the shore,
Am                           D
  And though you’ll never return,
                      Am
I love you Audrey Hepburn,
                          C            D
Sometimes I can see your face in the crowd,
Am                           D
  There are sailboats throughout this brilliant sky,
Am                          D
  But you cannot pick them out if you can’t fly,
Am                            D               Am
  I’m glad the Earth doesn’t care if I go up there,
                       C         D               G
  If you want to just ask me and I’ll take you along.
