Words and Lyrics John Denver 1977 [Verse 1]
C
Ridin' on a tradewind

                                           F
Fillin' my sails with a soft and southerly breeze

                    C
Livin' on the ocean blue
[Verse 2]
C
Dreaming' of the islands

                                         F
Rappin' myself in the glow of a tropical moon

                                 C
I never shiver when the sun goes down
[Chorus]
G7
  All the Earth she sings to me

G7
  Every shallow, every tree

G7                                 C
  Surely my loves shining like the sea
[Verse 3]
C
I can make you happy

                                            F
If I can I'll take you away on a wave in my arms

                                C
Never leave you on the edge all alone
[Verse 4]
C
If you feel like dancin'

                                           F
Rollin' like the water across my sleepless night

                    C
Makin me a peaceful place
[Chorus]
G7
  All my life to be with you

G7
  All I ever want to do

G7                                 C
  Knowing you are feeling that way too
[Interlude]
C F C F C
Mmmm (humming)
[Outro]
G
  Distant thunder, heavy seas

G
  Rocky Mountain memories

G7                               C
  Surely I was lost till I found these

C
 Ye Ye Ye

C F C F C
Mmmm (humming)
(Repeat and fade)
