E

You were born into the storm

B

Cast adrift upon a wave

F#m A E

To be living and make life begin

E

Like the ancient mystic ship

B

Bounding seaward toward the sun

F#m A E

Becomes a cosmic dancer in the wind

E

Stars that shine and rains that swirls

B

Sparkling sands of endless worlds

F#m A E

Driven by the thought that men are free

E

Love that makes and breaks a man

B

Memories fade and new ones stand

F#m A E

And another ship bounds through the sea

A C#m

Like in dreams sometimes it's so confusing to change

A

When you move from where you have been

B C#m

To where you have come

A C#m

Like in life when you look in to a child's eyes

A

They see it's all very clear

B E

It's near and then gone

E

Before the rising of the sun

B

Before the whirling winds were stirred

F#m A E

Before the simple rhymes of men were sung

E

Before the age of hate and pride

B

Before we laughed, before we cried

F#m A E

We were all contained and then begun
