Out on the ocean,   sailing away

I can hardly wait
G                  D  [Riff 3]
to see you come of age
G                 D                   A7       [Riff 4]
But I guess we'll both just have to be patient!

Cos it's a long way to go![Riff 3] A hard row to hoe![Riff 3] Yes it's a long way to go
           A7        [Riff 4]
But in the meantime..

Before you cross the street[Riff 1] Take my hand [Riff 1]
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy[Riff 2]
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy[Riff 2]
