Waiting For My Real Life To Begin Colin Hay Going Somewhere The timing here is hard to judge from the tab alone. I suggest you read this tab whilst listening to the song to figure out how it goes. At present I have only given the chords, but there's some fingerpicking/arpeggio picking going on throughout the song, just try to improvise, you can't really make it sound bad. Capo 4 Intro: // // // // // Verse: Any minute now, my ship is coming in // I'll keep checking the horizon // I'll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing // Come crashing down, down, down, on me Chorus: And you say, be still my love Open up your heart Let the light shine in But don't you understand I already have a plan I'm waiting for my real life to begin Break: // // // Verse: When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened // But in my dreams, I slew the dragon // And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane // I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again Chorus: And you say, just be here now Forget about the past, 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 Verse: Any minute now, my ship is coming in // I'll keep checking the horizon // And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that call // It's gonna happen soon, soon, soon, it's just that times are lean Chorus: And you say, be still my love Open up your heart, let the light shine in Don't you understand I already have a plan I'm waiting for my real life to begin Bridge: // // Outro: On a clear day // I can see /// See a very long way On a clear day // I can see ///// See a very long way Chords used: |--3--|--2--|--3--|--3--|-----|--3--|--3--| |--3--|--3--|--3--|--3--|--3--|--3--|--3--| |--0--|--2--|--0--|-----|--2--|-----|--0--| |--0--|--0--|--2--|-----|--2--|-----|--2--| |--2--|-----|--3--|-----|--0--|--2--|--2--| |--3--|-----|-----|--2--|-----|-----|--0--|
