  			SAIL AWAY - DAVID GRAY from 'White Ladder'  
------------------------------------------  
Capo on the third fret  
  
Am  
Sail away with me honey  
Em  
I put my heart in your hands  
Am                      F          Dm   
Sail away with me honey now, now, now  
Am          C  
Sail away with me  
 F         Dm  
What will be will be  
F                G      Dm  
I wanna hold you now  
  
C                        Em  
Crazy skies all wild above me now  
C                      Em  
Winter howling at my face  
C                       Em  
And everything I held so dear  
Am                      G  
Disappeared without a trace  
C                       Em  
Oh all the times I've tasted love  
C                      Em  
Never knew quite what I had  
C                      Em  
Little Darling if you hear me now  
Am                  G  
Never needed you so bad  
F                        Dm  
Spinning round inside my head  
  
Am  
Sail away with me honey  
Em  
I put my heart in your hands  
Am                      F          Dm  
Sail away with me honey now, now, now  
Am          C   
Sail away with me  
F           Dm  
What will be will be  
F                G     Dm  
I wanna hold you now  
  
I've been talking drunken gibberish  
Fallin' in and out of bars  
Trying to get some explanation here  
By the way some people are  
How did it ever come so far  
  
Sail away with me honey  
I put my heart in your hands  
Sail away with me honey now, now, now  
Sail away with me  
What will be will be  
I wanna hold you now  
Sail away with me honey  
I put my heart in your hands  
Sail away with me honey now, now, now  
Sail away with me  
What will be will be  
I wanna hold you now  
  
Repeat Chorus
