Em                   D                   C               Em 
The pilot says we're coming in, that the landing's just ahead 
G                         D 
But I'm chasing my shadow, turning 'round instead 
    Em                        D             Em                  D 
The plane's climbing over the water, like a seagull leaving dry land 
G              D                C                D 
Playing in the night sky like a child in a wonderland 


Bm                       Em  
Oh, if you could see the far-off horizon 
          D                         Em  
Where the mountains run down to the sea 
        G                    D 
And the water's shining like jewels 
    C                           Em    C  Em  
For pirates whose treasures are free 


                        D            C                 Em 
Take the turns a little steeper, you don't have to be afraid 
   G                        D 
He pushed down on the rudder as he took his hands away 
    Em                        D                  Em                D 
And now we're climbing in the night, between the mountains and the sea 
      G                D               C           D 
And I feel just like a bird in flight, happy to be free 


Bm                 Em  
And in the dark my senses are on fire 
D                       Em  
Oh, how I feel my smile burn 
      G              D 
And I want to climb again  
    C                 Em    C  Em  
And take that steeper turn 


                 D             C           Em 
Pull back on the stick, she'll lift so easily 
G                          D 
Bear down a little harder, turn her out to sea 
         Em                 D             Em              D 
And this pilot's dressed in leather, with seal fur to his chin 
         G             D               C               D 
And he's smiling at me knowingly, as I take that turn again 


Bm                      Em  
Oh, and I have seen the far-off horizon 
        D                    Em  
And the ships sailing down below 
G              D 
Playing in the wind like me 
     C                  Em    C  Em  
With treasures in their holds 


                    D           C                 Em 
We're over land the pilot said, you can touch her down 
G                         D 
Look for the lights ahead, lying straight along the ground 
    Em                   D     Em                      D 
But first you must cross over, check that the runway's clear 
G               D                          C                 D 
Take her up and circle 'round, if it's not right to land her here 


Bm                    Em  
Oh, look ahead to the far-off horizon 
    D                            Em  
The sun still lights the evening sky 
           G                    D 
Though the mountains have grown darker now 
      C              Em   C  Em  
We've time enough to fly 


                             D                  C           Em 
"What have you learned", the pilot asked, as we taxied to a stall 
G                        D 
Taking the turns steeper, doesn't mean you'll fall 
           Em                      D      Em              D 
'Cause the plane will hold herself level, constant as she spins 
        G               D                C              D 
And she holds a special place inside for pirates in the wind 


Bm                       Em  
Oh, if you could see the far-off horizon 
          D                         Em  
Where the mountains run down to the sea 
        G                    D 
And the water's shining like jewels 
    C                           Em    C  Em  
For pirates whose treasures are free
