Sailing - Rod Stewart
Capo: Fret 4
Tuning: , E A D G B E
I have come across many tabs on UG but none of the "simple" versions appeared to be in the right key
when playing along to the actual song. The chords below with a capo on 4 seem to sound right.
Me playing this on Youtube for you to see what I mean: https://youtu.be/PaRFS880_Lg
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I am sailing,
I am sailing h
ome again 'cro
ss the sea.
I am sailing s
tormy waters,
to be near you
, to be free.
[Verse 2]
I am flying, I
am flying lik
e a bird 'cros
s the sea.
I am flying pa
ssing high clo
uds, to be nea
r you, to be f
ree.
[Chorus]
Can you hear m
e, can you hea
r me, thru the
dark night fa
r away?
I am dying, fo
rever trying t
o be with you;
who can say?
Can you hear m
e, can you hea
r me, thru the
dark night fa
r away?
I am dying, fo
rever trying t
o be with you;
who can say?
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
I am sailing,
I am sailing h
ome again 'cro
ss the sea.
I am sailing s
tormy waters,
to be near you
, to be free.
[Outro]
Oh Lord, to be
near you, to
be free.
Oh Lord, to be
near you, to
be free.
Oh Lord, to be
near you, to
be free.
