[Intro] (D)  (D/F#)  (Bm7)  (D/A)  (G)  (Em7)  (G)  (A)

Put me (D) somewhere east of (D/F#) midnight, (Bm7) west of the (D/A) turnpike
(G) Any(D/F#)where I (Em7)wan(D/G)der is (A) where I'll take my (A/G) rest
As I (D/F#) lie (G) down, (A) toss some thoughts a(Bm)round
(A) Dreams I'm (G) told will come (A/G) true if you
(G) Believe in those who (A/G) love you right (D/F#) now (Bm) (A)
(G2) Sea of dreams I (A/G) long for you (G2) forget about the (A/G) others
This is (D/F#) my (G) hike, (D/A) you can come if you (A) like
To (D/A) feel (A) good, I would help you if I could

But (G) I am out here searching, for the (D/F#) things that might have been
I (G) need no more re(D/F#)minders
(Em) Not one love (D/F#) letter (G) have I (A) seen
And (Bm) that's a (A) pretty good (G) start (A/G)
The (G) ocean is where (A/G) lovers meet a(D/F#)gain
(G) Sea of dreams (A/G) by all means
(G) Float me out of (A/G) danger until (D/F#) then, (G) (D/A) forever a(A)men

It's a long, long hike, we'll be leaving early traveling light
That's alright, heaven will be ours tonight
The road is paved with moonbeams, there are faces that I knew
They all came back to haunt me
But that ain't fair to the folks like me and you, it takes a bit of my heart
Tonight I shall be watching from the shore
Sea of dreams from now on, forget about all the others
Back where the line forms, destination sea of storms
By all means ever onward sea of dreams

Put me somewhere east of midnight, along about daylight
Anywhere I wander is where I'll take my rest
If we could just lie down love, toss some thoughts around
It's a tough and a dirty long hike, you can come if you like
If we could just lie down love, toss some thoughts around
