Intro:

Verse1:
  4x riff2:
     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 Grain.
     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.

Chorus:

riff1

Verse2:
  4x riff2:
     Oh, woman, I keep running
     to sing the same old song
     The story's been told, now I'm gettin' old.
     Tell me ,where do I belong?
     Feel like I'm goin' to surrender,
     Hard times I've had enough.
     If I could find a place to hide my face,
     I believe, I could get back up.

Chorus:
  riff3:
    Time will show,
    when, I don't know.
  3x Riff4:
    Sail away tomorrow,

    I'll be there someday yea-yea-yeah yea-yea-yeah.
