Verse 1

(w/piano, bass, and acoustic guitar)

  If there's one thing in my life that's missing

  It's the time that I spend alone

  Sailing on the cool and bright clear water

  There's lots of those friendly people

  They're showing me ways to go

  But I never want to lose their inspiration

Chorus

(w/piano, bass, and acoustic guitar 1st time)

  Time for

  Cool change

  I know that it's time

  For a cool change

  And now that my life

  Is so prearranged

  I know that it's time for a

  Cool change

[1 (w/full band): D/E E]

Verse 2

Well, I was born in the sign of water

And it's there that I feel my best

The albatross and the whales they are my brothers

It's kind of a special feeling

When you're out on the sea alone

Staring at the full moon like a lover

[repeat chorus]

Bridge

  I've never been romantic

  And sometimes I don't care

  I know it may sound selfish

  But let me breathe the air

Verse 3

composite of first two verses):

(w/piano)

  If there's one thing in my life that's missing

  It's the time that I spend alone

  Sailing on the cool and bright clear water

(bass, acoustic guitar, and strings enter)

  It's kind of a special feeling

  Out on the sea alone

  Staring at the full moon like a lover

[repeat chorus 2X w/vocals; continue w/strings & sax to fade]
