[F#]
Was a captain, flew a silver sail
Laying a windstorm, like a part of the sea
Followed the sunshine, shining the stones
Like a part of the ocean, a part of the sea
What [D#m] he did not [G#m] feel was the journey of the treasures left behind
And he did not run from the answer, what he did not hear
[F#] Were the lies, [C#]
[G#m] [F#]
told a story, sailed through storms
And it appeared to live in the sea
Some say it was crazy, living in a dream
But it sailed with a reason, out on a crystal sea
[G#m] What he did not feel, did not hear
What he did not say, did not find
And he did not run from the answer, what he did not [F#] hear
Were the lies, [C#]
were [G#m] the
[F#] lies
Sail on, [C#] captain, oh sail [B] on
[F#] Sail on, captain, sail on
[C#] Let your guiding light lead you across [B] the ocean
[F#] Oh,
[B] though his eyes were low
There's so much more than many men [F#] could see
Man, I'm glad you see
Now [B] even though he's gone
His legacy lives on
[G#m] A simple faith that takes me [C#] across, I'll sail home again
[F#] Was a captain, flew [D#] a silver sail
Playing a [G#m] windstorm, like a part of the sea
What he did not feel, did not hear
What he did not say, did not find
And he did not run from the answer, what he did not hear
[F#] Were the
[C#]
[G#m] [F#] lies
Sail on, [C#] captain, oh [B] sail on
[F#] Sail on, captain, [C#]
sail [B] on
[F#] I said captain, sail on, captain, sail on
The stormy sea keeps raging [C#] on
Sometimes I miss my home
Take [B] me home, [F#] take me home
I can feel it when the wind blows
And [C#] I hear you call my name
[G#m] Take me [A#m]
home, [B] I've been away [F#] too long
Take [G#m] me [A#m] home, [B] let your spirit lead me [F#] on
[G#m] And until that [A#m] day
[B] I'll try to [F#] live just like a captain
