[Intro]
G D Cadd9 (pluck)> Cadd9 (pluck)> F#~ G G2 (pluck)> G (pluck)> D
Cadd9 (pluck)> Cadd9 (pluck)> F#~ G G2 G~ A~ B~

[Verse 1]
Cadd9 Cadd92 D G G2 G~ A~ B~
Any minute now, my ship is coming in
Cadd9 Em Aadd9 G~ A~ B~
I'll keep checking the horizon
Cadd9 Cadd92 D G G2 G~ A~ B~
I'll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing
Cadd9 Em Aadd9 G G~ A~ B~
Come crashing down, down, down, on me

[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
And you say, be still my love
Cadd9
Open up your heart
Cadd92 F#~ G
Let the light shine in
Cadd9 G D
But don't you understand
Cadd9
I already have a plan
D Cadd9 G G2 G
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

(pluck)> G (pluck)> D Cadd9 (pluck)> Cadd9 (pluck)> F#~ G G2 G~ A~ B~

[Verse 2]
Cadd9 Cadd92 D G G2 G~ A~ B~
When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened
Cadd9 Em Aadd9 G~ A~
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
B~ Cadd9 Cadd92 D G G2 G~ A~ B~
And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane
Cadd9 Em Aadd9 G G~ A~ B~
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again

[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
And you say, just be here now
Cadd9
Forget about the past,
Cadd92 F#~ G
Your mask is wearing thin
Cadd9 G D
Let me throw one more dice
Cadd9
I know that I can win
D Cadd9 G G2 G
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

(pluck)> G (pluck)> D Cadd9 (pluck)> Cadd9 (pluck)> F#~ G G2 G~ A~ B~

[Verse 3]
Cadd9 Cadd92 D G G2 G~ A~ B~
Any minute now, my ship is coming in
Cadd9 Em Aadd9 G~ A~ B~
I'll keep checking the horizon
Cadd9 Cadd92 D G G2 G~ A~ B~
And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that call
Cadd9 Em Aadd9 G
It's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon
G~ A~ B~
It's just that times are lean

[Chorus]
Cadd9 G D
And you say, be still my love
Cadd9
Open up your heart
Cadd92 F#~ G
Let the light shine in
Cadd9 G D
But don't you understand
Cadd9
I already have a plan
D Cadd9 G G F#~
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

On a clear day, I can see, see a very long way

On a clear day, I can seeeeeeee, see a very long wayayayayayayay
