Salt, Sand and Time
By Conni James and Chris Dean
Capo 6 (Capo 7 on half step down tuning)
[Verse 1]
Another full moon drifting past
Sand sifting through the hourglass
Watching summer fade to gray
Keep getting old along the way
Just four walls and bills to pay [Bass comes in, cymbal swell]
[Chorus 1]
If I could fly
Get away
Someday I’ll find
Salt sand and time
[Verse 2]
If i could
Taste salt on an ocean breeze
Hear the wild waves sing out to me
Then i would
Be ok for one more day
Free this solemn soul from its cage
Drift til just the stars remain
[Chorus 2]
If I could fly
Get away
I want to find
Salt sand and time
[Music interlude]
Em D Am C
[Bridge]
Lonliness, let the tide erase
Summer’s kiss, here to take its place
Freed from an everchanging [endless] maze
In the rhythm of these passing days
[Music interlude]
[Em D Am C D]
[Chorus 3]
I’m gonna fly
Get away
In my mind
sand and time
