[INTRO]

G  D  Cadd9  D/F#  G  Gsus4
G  D  Cadd9  D/F#  G  Gsus4

G  D/F#  G/B


[VERSE]

           Cadd9  D 
Any minute now   
                  G  Gsus4  G  D/F#
My ship is coming in
          G/B
I'll keep checking
    Cadd9  Em  Asus4  G  D/F#
The horizon
    G/B               Cadd9  D  
And I'll stand on the bow
                        G        
And feel the waves come crashing

Gsus4  G  D/F#  G/B

              Cadd9 Em    Asus4   G  
Come crashing down, down, down on me


[CHORUS]

    Cadd9 G  Cadd9                  
And you say  
   G         D
Be still, my love
             Cadd9          
Open up your heart 
        D/F#        G   D/F#  G/B
Let the light shine in
      Cadd9    D      
Don't you understand?  
                 Cadd9
I already have a plan
    D              Cadd9        G      Gsus4 
I'm waiting for my real life to begin


[INTERLUDE]

G  D  Cadd9  D/F#  G  Gsus4

G  D/F#  G/B


[VERSE]

             Cadd9  D 
When I awoke today
                 G         
Suddenly nothing happened

Gsus4  G  D/F#  G/B

          Cadd9  Em  Asus4                      
But in my dreams       
           G       D/F#
I slew the dragon
    G/B              Cadd9  D   
And down this beaten path   
                    G    Gsus4  G  D/F#
And up this cobbled lane
    G/B           Cadd9         
I'm walking in my own    
Em  Asus4       G
Footsteps once again


[CHORUS]

    Cadd9 G  Cadd9 
And you   say   
     G       D
Just be here now
                 Cadd9  
Forget about the past, 
             D/F#    G     D/F#  G/B 
Your mask is wearing thin
       Cadd9          D    
Let me throw one more dice
                  Cadd9
I know that I can win
    D              Cadd9        G      Gsus4
I'm waiting for my real life to begin


[INTERLUDE]

G  D  Cadd9  D/F#  G  Gsus4

G  D/F#  G/B


[VERSE]

           Cadd9  D 
Any minute now   
                  G  Gsus4  G  D/F#
My ship is coming in
          G/B
I'll keep checking
    Cadd9  Em  Asus4  G  D/F#
The horizon
    G/B             Cadd9  D  
And I'll check my machine
                        G     
There's sure to be that call

Gsus4  G  D/F#  G/B

                  Cadd9 Em     
It's gunna happen soon
Asus4            G  
Soon, oh so very soon
                Gsus4    G  D/F#  G/B
It's just that times are lean


[CHORUS]

    Cadd9 G  Cadd9                  
And you say  
   G         D
Be still, my love
             Cadd9          
Open up your heart 
        D/F#        G   D/F#  G/B
Let the light shine in
      Cadd9    D      
Don't you understand?  
                 Cadd9
I already have a plan
    D              Cadd9        G      Gsus4 
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

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