Lyrics

Well, it’s not far down to par a dise.

At least it’s not for me.

And if the wind is right, you can sail a way

and find tran quil li ty.

Oh, the can vas can do mir a cles.

(D)Just you wait and see

Be (D)lieve

me.

It’s not far to nev er nev er land.

No rea (Dsus)son to pre tend.

And if the wind is right, you can find the joy

of in no cence a gain.

Oh, the can vas can do mir a cles.

(D)Just you wait and see.

Be lieve

takes me a way

to where I’ve al ways (D)heard it could be.

Just a dream and the wind to car ry me,

and (Bm7)soon I will be free.

(D)Fan ta sy,

of me

when I’m (D)sail

ing.

(D)All caught up in the rev er ie;

Won’t you be lieve
