 {st:James Taylor}
 
 James Taylor 1975
 
 Off the coast of Africa, [ D A4 A ]
 bound for South America [ Bm F#m7 ]
 A world away from here [ G A4 A ]
 Is a ship that sails the sea [ D A4 A ]
 Is a man who's just like me [ Bm F#m7 ]
 And I wish that I was there [ G A G/D D A/D ]
 
 I'm a lonely lighthouse-not a ship out in the night [ D A/D C/D G ]
 I'm watching the sea [ A Bm ]
 She's come half-way round the world to see the light [ D A/D C/D G ]
 and to stay away from me [ A7sus4 A7 G/D D A/D ]
 There is a shipwreck lying at my feet [ Bm A G, D A/D G ]
 Some weary refugee from the rolling deep [ Bm A G/D D A/D ]
 Ah, would you lose it all and fall for me? [ Bm F#7sus4 F#7 Bm7 E7 ]
 
 Couldn't we shine? [ G/D ]
 I'm rolling all my golden moments into one [ D A/D C/D ]
 Like to shine like the sun for one more summer day [ G/D D A/D C/D ]
 Shine like a lighthouse for one last summer night [ G/D D A/D C/D ]
 Flashing on, flashing on, fading away [ G/D D A/D C/D ]
 [ G/D ]
 
 Well if you feel lost and lonely and don't know where to go [ D A/D C/D G
 ]
 and you hear this song on the radio [ A Bm ]
 Or even if you're feeling healthy and strong [ D A/D C/D G ]
 you might like to sing along [ A7sus4 A7 G/D D A/D ]
 But just because I might be standing here [ Bm A G, D A/D G ]
 That don't mean I won't be wrong this time [ Bm A G/D D A/D ]
 You could follow me and lose your mind [ Bm F#7sus4 F#7 Bm7 E7 ]
 (repeat Chorus)
 
 Off the coast of Africa, [ D A4 A ]
 bound for South America [ Bm F#m7 ]
 A world away from here [ G A4 A ]
 Is a ship that sails the sea [ D A4 A ]
 Is a man who's just like me [ Bm F#m7 ]
 And I wish that I was there [ G A ||: G/D D A/D C/D :|| ]
