Am  D Dsus4  Am  D Dsus4
Am                    D Dsus Am              D Dsus
Like a dream on the ocean,  always drifting away
Am             D   Dsus           Am                D  Dsus
And I can't catch up,  she just skips away, on the tide
Am                  D Dsus Am            D   Dsus
Sometimes a great notion  can lead you astray
Am            D  Dsus    F             Am
So weak to devotion, so strong to desire

CHORUS:
F                          C          Csus
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
F                   C             Csus
Take me off on your sailboat ride
F                       C  
Come on now, angels are on your side
          Am                  D      Dsus
But she slips away, oh and never stays


Am  D Dsus  Am  D Dsus  Am  D Dsus  Am  Am  INTRO RIFF

Like mercury gliding, a silver teardrop that falls
And I can't hold on, through my fingers she's gone
At the foot of the mountain, such a long way to climb
How will I ever get up there, though I know I must try
CHORUS

Like a dream on the ocean, always drifting away
And I can't catch up, she just skips away, on the tide
Oh slips away, on the tide, oh slips away, on the tide
Am INTRO RIFF Am
