I'll Admit My Steps Are Growing Wearier Each Day
                                       F#
Still I've Got A Certain Journey On My Mind
                                       C#7
Lures Of This Old World Have Ceased To Make Me Want To Stay

My One Regret Is Leaving You Be-hind

F#                               C#7
If It Proves To Be His Will That I Am First To Cross

And Somehow I've A Feeling It Will Be
                                  C#7
When It Comes Your Turn To Travel Likewise Don't Feel Lost

I'll Be Sitting Drawing Pictures In The Sand

And When I See You Coming I Will Rise Up With A Shout
         B                   F#            C#7               F#
And Come Running Through The Shallow Water Reaching For Your Hand

F#                                    C#7
Through This Life We've Laboured Long To Earn Our Meagre Fare
                                            F#
It's Brought Us Trembling Hands And Failing Eyes
                                      C#7
So I'll Just Rest There On That Shore And Turn My Eyes Away
                                   F#
Until You Come Then We'll See Para-dise

I'll Be Sitting Drawing Pictures In The Sand
    C#7                          F#
And When I See You Coming I Will Rise Up With A Shout
         B                   F#            C#7               F#
