(repeated many times with the chords interspersed until verse) We can run, we can run through the woods but they'll find us We can hide, we can hide, we can hide like I've done my whole life We can watch as they burn all the books in the fire We can dance to the stars in the sky in the darkness of nights Oh, I'll be here to say Oh, I'll be here to say Oh, when I'm sailing, Oh, when I'm sailing, I'm gonna get you back on time I'm gonna get you back on time I can still hear the sound of that broken piano, I can still feel the chill from the cold on the back of my spine I can pray to a god, I can hope that he'll save us I have seen too much pain, too much hurt, too much death in this life Oh, I'll be here to say Oh, I'll be here to say Oh, when I'm sailing, Oh, when I'm sailing, I'm gonna get you back on time I'm gonna get you back on time Oh, when I'm sailing, Oh, when I'm sailing, I'm gonna get you back on time I'm gonna get you back on time I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire I will wait, I will wait, I will wait by the fire Oh, when I'm sailing, Oh, when I'm sailing, I'm gonna get you back on time I'm gonna get you back on time Oh, when I'm sailing, Oh, when I'm sailing, I'm gonna get you back on time I'm gonna get you back on time
