C  F        G       C
I awake the morning sun
Am          F           G
Gold as the ring that I wore
C    F       G       Am
Back when we woke as one
F    G       C
On a distant shore

[Verse]
      F       G        C
There life is blooming now
Am           F           G
Close by the wide oceans roar
   C F         G         Am
If I could buy wings I'd fly
F       G       C
To that distant shore

[Chorus]
         F        C          G          Am
When you think of me, sing a heart-spun song
          F     C            G
When it's over, sing it once more
         Dm7      Am        F         C
When you dream of me, dream when I'll meet you
F       G       F  C
On that distant shore

[Verse]
C    F        G     C
Love sleeping in my arms
Am             F        G
Eyes like your father before
C       F         G        Am
Born to have your father's need
F     G       C
For a distant shore

[Chorus]
         F        C          G         Am
When you think of me, sing a wide-open song
          F     C            G
When it's over, sing it once more
         Dm7      Am        F         C
When you dream of me, dream when I'll meet you
F       G       F  Am
On that distant shore

[Verse]
C    F    G      C
Life is a stormy sea
Am            F            G
Hearts can be tattered and torn
  C       F       G          Am
I still believe peace can be found
F       G       C
On that distant shore

[Chorus]
         F        C           G        Am
When you think of me, sing an unbroken song
          F     C            G
When it's over, sing it once more
         Dm7      Am        F         C
When you dream of me, dream when I'll meet you
F       G       F  Am  F  C
On that distant shore
F       G       F  C
On that distant shore
