  Out on the ocean,      sailing away
G             D
 I can hardly wait
G                   D
 To see you come of age
G                  D                     | A Asus2 | A5 A7 |
 But I guess we'll both just have to have patient
             G           D
Cause it's a long way to go
G              D
 A hard row to hoe
           G           D           | A Asus2 | A5 A7 |
Yes it's a long way to go but in the meantime

Before you cross the street 
D       D6    D  D6
Take my hand

Life is what happens to you 
             D6          D     D6     D  D6
While you're busy making other plans
