Sail Away
(Blackmore/Coverdale)
From "Burn", 1974
Em

If you're driftin' on an empty ocean

 

with no wind to fill your sail,

 

the future, your horizon,

 

it's like searchin' for the Holy Grail.

 

You feel there's no tomorrow

 

as you look into the water below.

 

It's only your reflection

 

and you still ain't got no place to go.

 

B    A    G

Time will show,

 

Em/B  D/A     C/G

when, I don't know.

 

Am          Em

Sail away tomorrow,

 

Am           Em

sailin' far away.

 

   Am               Em

To find it steal or borrow.

 

G       A         B

I'll be there someday
