Waiting For My Real Life To Begin Ukulele chords by Colin Hay

Chords with lyrics

Verse:
C     Csus4
Any minute now,
G         C Csus4 C
My ship is coming in
     Csus4    F Em F C
I'll keep checking the horizon
         Csus4
I'll stand on the bow,
G          C    Csus4 C
Feel the waves come crashing
       F  Em  F     C Csus4 C
Come crashing down down down, on me


Chorus:
      F  C    G
And you say, be still my love
       F
Open up your heart
G7         C
Let the light shine in
F       C   G
But don't you understand
         F
I already have a plan
  G       F Csus4   C
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

Verse:
C     Csus4
When I awoke today,
G         C Csus4 C
suddenly nothing happened
     F Em F       C
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
           Csus4 G          C Csus4 C
And down this beaten path, up this cobbled lane
         F Em F          C Csus4 C
I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again


Chorus:
      F  C     G
And you say, just be here now
         F
Forget about the past,
G7          C
Your mask is wearing thin
F        C     G
Just let me throw one more dice
         F
I know that I can win
G       F Csus4   C
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

Verse:
C     Csus4
Any minute now,
G         C Csus4 C
My ship is coming in
     Csus4    F Em F C
I'll keep checking the horizon
         Csus4   G              C Csus4 C
And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that call
         F   Em  F
It's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon
             C
It's just that times are lean


Chorus:
      F  C    G
And you say, be still my love
       F
Open up your heart
G7         C
Let the light shine in
F       C   G
But don't you understand
         F
I already have a plan
  G       F Csus4   C
I'm waiting for my real life to begin


Outro:
C          Csus4     G  C
On a clear day I can see, see for a long way
C          Csus4     G  C
On a clear day I can see, see for a long way
