[Verse 1]
         D5
When the storm clouds are riding through a winter sky
      E7sus4
Sail away, sail away
         D   Dmaj7    D7              G   F#7     Bm
When the lovelight is fading in your sweetheart's eye
E6    Em7 A/E       Em7 A/E
Sail away ... sail away
         D         Daug    G/D          A/E
When you feel your song is orchestrated wrong
Bm                E7        A/E
Why should you prolong your stay?
         D    Dmaj7   D7                G      F#7 Bm
When the wind and the weather blow your dreams sky high
E7    Em7        D#maj7     D      Em A 
Sail away, sail away, sail away

[Verse 2]
          D    Dmaj7     D7           G    F#7 Bm
When your life seems too difficult to rise a-  bove
E     Em7 A/E       Em7 A/E
Sail away ... sail away
          D    Dmaj7     D7          G    F#7 Bm
When your heart feels as dreary as a worn-out glove
E     Em7 A/E       Em7 A/E
Sail away ... sail away
         D       Daug     G/D            A/E
But when soon or late you recognise your fate
Bm                E7           A
That will be your great, great day
       D     Dmaj7  D7                G   F#7  Bm
On the wings of the morning with your own true love
E7    Em7        D#maj7     D   
Sail away, sail away, sail away
