[Intro] 

Am7   Am/D D7sus4   Am7   Am/D D7sus4

[Verse 1]
Am7                     Am/D  Dsus4
Like a dream on the ocean
Am7                  Am/D  Dsus4
Always drifting away
Am7                 Am/D  Dsus4
And I can't catch up
    Am7                    Am/D  Dsus4
She just skips away - on the tide
Am7                     Am/D  Dsus4
Sometimes a great notion
Am7                 Am/D  Dsus4
Can lead you astray
Am7                 Am/D  Dsus4
So weak to devotion
    F6              Am  G/A
So strong to desire

[Chorus 1]
F6                              C
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
F6                              C
Take me off on your sail boat ride
F6                              C
Come on now angels, are on your side
        Am                         D7
But she slips away - oh, and never stays

[Instrumental]

Am7   Am/D D7sus4   Am7   Am/D D7sus4
Am7   Am/D D7sus4   Am7   Am7

[Verse 2]
Am7                 Am/D  Dsus4
Like mercury gliding
Am7                      Am/D  Dsus4
A silver teardrop that falls
Am7                 Am/D  Dsus4
And I can't hold on
Am7                       Am/D  Dsus4
Through my fingers she's gone
Am7                      Am/D  Dsus4
At the foot of the mountain
Am7                    Am/D  Dsus4
Such a long way to climb
Am7                         Am/D  Dsus4
How will I ever get up there -
    F6              Am  G/A
Though I know I must try

[Chorus 2]
F6                              C
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
F6                              C
Take me off on your sail boat ride
F6                              C
Come on now angels, are on your side
        Am                         D7
But she slips away - oh, and never stays

[Verse 3]
Am7                     Am/D  Dsus4
Like a dream on the ocean
Am7                  Am/D  Dsus4
Always drifting away
Am7                 Am/D  Dsus4
And I can't catch up
           Am7           Am/D
She just skips away - on the tide
           Am7            D7
She just slips away - on the tide
         Am7         D7   Em   Am7
Skips away - as she glides
