[VERSE 1]
When [A]stars are born.
Are [Bm/A]they cast out?
To [E]wander cold and lonely [D]lost in [A]space.
A [Cdim7]loveless point of light
That can't re[Bm]turn.
For[Bm7]ever fixed with[E]in one place.
[VERSE 2]
When [A]love is lost and [Bm/A]dreams are cast.
Like [E]bruised and battered pieces [D]left to [A]die.
When [Cdim7]hands that reach out are betrayed.
How [Bm]can my tortured [Bm7]soul survive? [E]
[BRIDGE]
There's only [C#m]one thing [F#m]left.
And that's the [D]one thing that I needed [E]most of all.
But the [C#m]freedom that I've [F#m]gained
Is the [Bm]loss that led me [Bm/A]aimless to the [G]shore. [G/F#] [E]
[CHORUS]
And I'm [A]borne [C#m7]high on these wav[F#m]es. [F#m/E]
[D]Swept by the [A/C#]wind and [E]alone.
[A]Sail me away, [C#m7]carry me back to my [D]home. [E]
I'm [D]tired, I've been torn.
A [E/D]cruel wretched storm [C#7]churns like a [C#7/E]gale in my [F#m]bones.
Oh [F#m/E]sail me [Bm]away.
[D/E]Carry me [E]back to my [Dadd2]home.
[VERSE 3]
These [A]scars run deep.
The [Bm/A]future holds a hunger [E]for an innocence that [D]passed a[A]way.
My [Cdim7]callous shadows [A]mock.
And make it clear [Bm]some things were [Bm7]not enough to [E]make them stay.
[BRIDGE]
The moment [C#m]time stands [F#m]still
Is the [D]moment that the writing's [E]on the walls.
The [C#m]words are clear as [F#m]ringing bells
That [Bm]pride is present [Bm/A]right before the [G]fall. [G/F#] [E]
[CHORUS]
And I'm [A]borne [C#m7]high on these wav[F#m]es. [F#m/E]
[D]Swept by the [A/C#]wind and [E]alone.
[A]Oh, sail me away, [C#m7]carry me back to my [D]home. [E]
I'm [D]tired, I've been torn.
A [E/D]cruel wretched storm [C#7]churns like a [C#7/E]gail in my [F#m]bones.
Oh [F#m/E]sail me [Bm]away.
[D/E]Carry me [E]back to my [Dadd2]home.
[F#m/E]Sail me [Bm]away!
[D/E]Carry me [E]back to my [Dadd2]home! [A]
