Key: :[F#] (w: Victoria Shaw, Garth Brooks)

INTRO: [F#] [C#]

VERSE 1:
You know a [C#] dream is like a river
Ever [F#] changin' as it [C#] flows
And a [F#] dreamer's just a [C#] vessel
That must [D#m] follow where it [G#] goes
Trying to [C#] learn from [F#] what's be-[C#]-hind you
And never [F#] knowing what's in store
Makes each [C#] day a [F#] constant [C#] battle
Just to [G#] stay between the [C#] shores [F#] [C#]

CHORUS:
I will [C#] sail [F#] my [C#] vessel
'Til the [F#] river runs [C#] dry
Like a [F#] bird upon the [C#] wind
These [D#m] waters are my [G#] sky
I'll never [C#] reach my [F#] desti-[C#]-nation
[F#] If I never try
So I will [C#] sail [F#] my [C#] vessel
'Til the [G#] river runs [C#] dry

VERSE 2:
Too many [C#] times we stand aside
And let [F#] waters slip a-[C#]-way
'Til what we [F#] put off 'til to-[C#]-morrow
Has [D#m] now become to-[G#]-day
So don't you [C#] sit up-[F#]-on the [C#] shoreline
And [F#] say you're satisfied
[C#] Choose to change the rapids
And [G#] dare to dance the [C#] tide [F#] [C#]

REPEAT CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
And there's [A#m] bound to be rough [F#] waters
And I [C#] know I'll take some [F#] falls
But with the [D#m] good lord as my [C#] captain
I can [F#] make it through them [G#] all

SONG KEY CHANGE: [+2] [G#]

CHORUS:
I will [D#] sail [G#] my [D#] vessel
'Til the [G#] river runs [D#] dry
Like a [G#] bird upon the [D#] wind
These [Fm] waters are my [A#] sky
I'll never [D#] reach my [G#] desti-[D#]-nation
[G#] If I never try
So I will [D#] sail [G#] my [D#] vessel
'Til the [A#] river runs [D#] dry

OUTRO:
So I will [D#] sail [G#] my [D#] vessel
'Til the [A#] river runs [D#] dry
