Sailing Solo Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][G][Dm][G][C][G]
[C][Em][G][Dm][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Imagine sailing solo [Em]around the world
[G]Only to [Dm]find you've missed
a [G]continent [C]out
[G]And as your hap[C]py turns
choppy and [Em]tidal wave swirls
[G]You're won[Dm]dering why
there's [G]no one [Em]about[C]

[Verse 2]
At [Dm]least Captain Scott actually
[G]stood on the spot
Where he [C]planned to put up Uni[G]on [F]Jack
And [Dm]though Captain Cook
cursed [G]the map that he took
He got [C]near enough for
native's [G]attack[F][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]That's how it feels trying
to [A]navigate you
Even [F]with compass and [G]infinite [C]time[G]
And [C]just when I think I've
found [A]some part that's new
I find a [F]flag already [G]up that's not mine

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C][Em]
[G][Dm][G][C][G][C]
[Em][G][Dm][G][C][G]

[Verse 4]
[C]Circling you is jour[Em]ney minus view
[G]Explor[Dm]ation without [G]reason
or re[C]ward[G]
'Cause [C]when I get near,
you use an [Em]arrow or spear
[G]To pre[Dm]vent my heart [G]ever being [C]shored

[Verse 5]
The [Dm]earth ain't flat but it's
[G]a simple doormat
Com[C]pared to your unclimbable [F]self
The [Dm]desolate terrain,
you have to [G]cross to your brain
Just [C]one of your slippery
[Em]shelves[F][G][F][G]

[Verse 6]
[C]That's how it feels trying
to [A]navigate you
Even with [F]compass and [G]infinite [C]time[G]
And [C]just when I think I've found
[A]some part that's new
I find [F]a flag already [G]up that's not mine
[C]

[Verse 7]
And [Am]if I[B] eve[C]r get close,
I'll need a [A]banner or post
To [F]hang it from, [G]first there or [C]not[G]
So [C]voyage may uncover
[A]a sister or brother
And [F]a friendship [G]that Colombus forgot

[Outro 1]
