[F#m] [A]
[Em] [D] Many's the [A] time I've [E] been [A] [E] [C#] forsaken
[F#m] And [C#] certainly [F#] [F#m] abused
[A] [Em] But [D] it's [A] alright, [E] it's [A] alright
[G] You [D] can be [E] forever [C#] [F#] blest
[B] [E] When I think [F#m] [B] of the working [E] day
I've [D] just got [A] to [E] get some [C#] rest
[F#m] [D] [A] I've got to [E] get [A] some rest
I [D] don't know a [A] soul [E] who's [A] not been [E]
[C#] battered
[F#m] Don't have a friend [C#] who feels [F#] at [F#m]
[A] ease
[G] [D] Dumbed on a [A] dream that's [E] not [A] been [E] shattered

Oh, [D] but it's [A] alright, [E] it's [A] alright
[C#] [D] We've lived so [E] well, [C#] so [C#m] long

[D] So [A] far [E] away from [C#] home
[F#m] [D] So [A] far [E] away from [A] home
And I dreamed I was dying
I dreamed that [E] my soul [C#] rose [F#m] unexpectedly
[B] And [E] looking back down on [D] me, [A] smiled [E] reassuringly
And [D] I dreamed [A] I was flying
And high up [E] above [C#] my [F#m] eyes
Could clearly [B] see the [E] Statue of Liberty
[D] [A] Sailing [E] away to sea
[G#] And [D] I dreamed [A] I was flying
We come [D] on the [A] ship they [E] call [A] [E] the [C#] Mayfly
We [F#m] come on the ship [C#] that sailed [F#] the [F#m] moon
[A] [Em] We come [D] in the [A] ages [E] most [A] [E] uncertain [C#]
now
And we [F#m] sing [C#] in a melody [F#] too
[A] Oh, [D] but it's alright, [A] [E] it's [A] alright
[C#] You [D] can be [E] forever
[C#] And
[F#] [B] [E] when I think [F#m]
[B] of the working [E] day
[D] I've just [A] got to [E] get [C#] some [F#m] rest
[D] [A] I've got to [E] get [A] some rest
[E] [D] [A] [Bm] [A] [E] [A]
