Intro: A D A D
       A E/G# F#m D

  F#m            D
Today I saw the sun
             F#m                  D
to rise, to fall, but can you forgive me?
        F#m               D
I sail upon this mortal storm
                F#m                 D
and hearts that cry and love is to leave me.

              D
We're miles apart.
                   A
I know my aim is true.
                          E
It keeps this flame from dying.
              A
I just stay alive.

         E/G#
Angel of mercy,
                 F#m       F#m/E
I know that I'll find you.
         D           A/C#            Bm
So it's to my God in heaven that I pray
             A
we can fly away.

E/G# F#m

             D            A/C#            Bm
[I saw you shining in the darkness of my day
            F#m
We can fly away]

     F#m             D
The voice is on the wind.
             F#m                      D
I steal the stars, the course I must follow.
             F#m                D
No space or time, no sleep the soul,
         F#m                    D
it lies awake, it craves to be near you.

             D
It drives me on.
                   A
I know my aim is true.
                        E
It keeps my flame from dying.
                A
We might live again.

         E/G#
Angel of mercy,
                 F#m       F#m/E
I know that I'll find you.
         D           A/C#            Bm
So it's to my God in heaven that I pray
             A
we can fly away.

   A
[Write a letter in the sand
     D
that only lovers understand,
      A
and when the words are said and done
      D
that we must come together.

A          E/G#
  Angel of mercy,
                 F#m       F#m/E
I know that I'll find you.
         D           A/C#            Bm
So it's to my God in heaven that I pray
             A
we can fly away.]

 A
Sailing on a sea of gold,
       D
where silver wings of angels go,
A
I can see a million miles
      D
that love goes on forever.

Write a letter in the sand

that love goes on forever.
