Out in the [Am] deserts of darkness [G] and in dreams,
After the oceans of sadness [C] he sailed.

[E] Venturing onward through [A] _ _ [G] mystic scenes,
Blown on the whim of the wind [C] that prevailed.
_ _ _ [F] _ [E] _ [C]
He had no reason [F] to doubt [A#] the truth,
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] Driven by danger [D#] and discontent [C#] and the thrones [D] of youth.
_ _ [G] _ Don't let the [C] memory die,
_ Children [G] of the [Em] sky, heroes [D] unseen. _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] And as your life passes [C] by,
_ _ Remember [G] how it feels to [D] be [C] children [G] of the sky.

[G] and fears,
Searching in forests of feathers [C] and stone.
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [G] _
[E] Travelling through valleys [A] of secrets [G] and in tears,
There are only the brave or the foolish who [C] know.
_ _ _ _ [F] _ [G] _ [C]
Watching for signs [F] in an [A#] empty sky, _
_ _ _ _ [G#] He never thought that [D#] the rain would fall as [C#] the years went [D] by.
_ _ [G] _ Don't let [Em] the [C] memory die,
_ Children [G] of the [Em] sky, heroes [D] _ unseen. _
