           Cadd92                         ~ ~ ~             
Any minute now,          my ship is coming in 
                             ~ ~ ~      
I'll keep checking the horizon 
                  Cadd92                      ~ ~ ~             
I'll stand on the bow,        feel the waves come crashing 
                              ~ ~ ~ 
Come crashing down, down, down, on me 

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

(pluck)>  (pluck)>   (pluck)>  (pluck)> ~   ~ ~ ~

               Cadd92                     ~ ~ ~
When I awoke today,         suddenly nothing happened 
                ~     ~      
But in my dreams,      I slew the dragon 
    ~                Cadd92                      ~ ~ ~  
And down this beaten path,       and up this cobbled lane 
                                 ~ ~ ~ 
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again 

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

           Cadd92                        ~ ~ ~             
Any minute now,          my ship is coming in 
                             ~ ~ ~ 
I'll keep checking the horizon 
                    Cadd92                             ~ ~ ~    
And I'll check my machine,      there's sure to be that call 
                                          
It's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon
                             ~ ~ ~
It's just that times are lean 


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