[Bb] [Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] [Ab]
[Eb] We were sailing on [Bb] waves of silver, [Cm] there were echoes [Ab] in the wind.
When [Eb] we raised our sails [Bb] to capture them, [Cm] the ship was [Ab] lifted up and in [Eb] and
[Bb]
[Cm] [Ab] Ooooooh, ooooooh, [Eb] [Bb] ooooooh, [Cm] [Ab] ooooooh.
[Eb]
Now the country [Bb] that we came from, [Cm] they play silver [Ab] melodies,
And [Eb] the kings and queens [Bb] all write their dreams [Cm] on silver [Ab] pages we would read [Eb] and sing.
[Bb] [Cm] [Ab] Ooooooh, ooooooh, [Eb] [Bb] [Cm] ooooooh, [Ab] ooooooh.
[Eb] We [Bb] will cross [Cm] any water, [Ab] any water, [Eb] and if [Bb] we find [Cm] there's a song that's [Ab] getting stronger,
[Eb] We [Bb] will sound [Cm] all our silver [Ab] songs, [Eb] and we [Bb] will know [Cm] where they [Ab] belong.
[Eb] Now the echoes were [Bb] getting louder, [Cm] and the chorus [Ab] filled the air.
When [Eb] the voices fell, [Bb] they broke the spell [Cm] that tied us to [Ab] our silver chairs and [Eb] we sang.
[Bb] [Cm] [Ab] Ooooooh, [Eb] ooooooh,
[Bb] [Cm] ooooooh, [Ab] ooooooh.
[Eb]
We were taken [Bb] through the shadows, we [Cm] were carried [Ab] through the night.
When [Eb] the sun appeared, [Bb] my God, my [Cm] fears of silver [Ab] melted in the light.
And [Cm] we saw the world with different eyes, and [Eb] we sang.
[Bb] [C]
[Ab] [Eb] Ooooooh, [Bb] ooooooh, [C]
[Ab] ooooooh, [Eb] ooooooh.
[Bb] Ooooooh, [Cm]

[Eb] We [Bb] will sound [Cm] all our silver [Ab] songs, [Eb] and we [Bb] will know [Cm] where they [Ab] belong.
