This is not exactly as the original, but I think it's close.
For the Pre-Chorus I personally prefer to use the Fmaj7:
--0--
--1--
--2--
--3--
--0--
--1--
(Thumb on the 1st fret of the E-String)
and slide that up 2 frets so I got something that resembles a G.
They don't do that in the original, but I think it gives a nice note to the song.
I tabbed the Bridge, because I couldn't get out any chords for it, and what I wrote there is not what
they play, I think it's kind of a combination of the piano and the guitar, but it fits alright.
I hope you have fun playing one of Sunrise avenue's best songs :)
Verse 1:
Am
There´s a hundred love boats
All around me
E Am
And they all make the waves too high
Am
There´s a heavy burden
on my shoulders
E Am
And it slowly pulls me down
Pre-Chorus:
F G Am
I just have no one to sail with me
F G Am
I just have no one to sail with me
Chorus:
Am E
Would you sail away with me
C Em F
Could you leave it all behind and float away
Dm
And to lie beside me
Am E
When the sun goes down
Am E
Would you take me as I am
C Em F Dm
I would hold you all the way I´d understand
Am E Am
We will break the strongest waves to see the land
Verse 2:
Am
There´s some in the water
Close to drowning
E Am
And I´m always a stroke behind
Am
The taken sailors
Don´t realize
E Am
How they´d need to respect their wives
Pre-Chorus:
F G Am
I just have no one to sail with me
F G
I just have no one
Chorus: (2x)
Am E
Would you sail away with me
C Em F
Could you leave it all behind and float away
Dm
And to lie beside me
Am E
When the sun goes down
Am E
Would you take me as I am
C Em F Dm
I would hold you all the way I´d understand
Am E Am
We will break the strongest waves to see the land
