D 
Wouldn't you like to be 
           A       D 
out on the rolling sea 
D                                 A 
with only the sky above you for a roof 

D 
What if you're friends were there 
                A         D 
laughed at your jokes and shared 
D                                         A 
Sweet soft air with you, wouldn't that be good? 

   G F# Em     D 
You know... it would 

D 
Wouldn't you like to find 
         A         D 
yourself there sometime 
                                 A    
Ducking when the bow swings your way 

D 
whenever we make plans 
                     A    D 
you tell me you're a busy man 
                                    A 
That you'd go but you really should stay 

    G F# Em         D 
Someday soon you'll say.. 

G   F#  Em                  D 
Nothin' escapes the rolling sea 
        G    F#  Em     D 
Not the past nor you or me  

D 
You keep the world at bay 
              A     D 
Should it all wash away 
                                    A 
You wouldn't feel no pain of losing kind 

D 
Gather the boat and wind 
                  A       D 
and a few of your closest friends 
                                        A 
Gonna ride and swim while the weather's nice 

        G    F#     Em   D 
Oh it's been such a long time..... 
  G      F# Em           D 
Oh it's been such a long time.... 
 G      F#     Em        D 
Oh it's been such a long time....
