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
