Bm A F#m

Takin' on water, sailin' a restless sea

Bm C#m D E Bm

From a memory, a fantasy

A F#m

The wind carries into white water

Far from the Islands

Bm C#m D E

Don't you know you're

F#m E G#m F#m D

Nev-er going to get to France

E F#m

Mary Queen of Chance will they find you

F#m E G#m F#m D

Nev-er going to get to France

E F#m

Could a new romance ever bind you

Walkin' in foreign grounds like a shadow

Roaming in far off territory

Over your shoulder stories unfold

You're searching for sanctuary you know you're

Never going to get to France...

D C#m D E

I see a picture by the lamp's flicker

D C#m D E

Isn't it strange how dreams fade and shimmer?

Never going to get to France...
