Waiting For My Real Life To Begin

Going Somewhere
Tabbed by Ian Dulley (

The timing here is hard to judge from the tab alone.
I suggest you read this tab whilst listening to the
song to figure out how it goes.
At present I have only given the chords, but there s
some fingerpicking/arpeggio picking going on
throughout the song, just try to improvise, you can t
really make it sound bad.
Capo 4
Intro:
//
// //
// //
Verse:
Any minute now,
my ship is coming in
//
I ll keep checking the horizon
//
I ll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing
//
Come crashing down, down, down, on me
Chorus:
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in
But don t you understand
I already have a plan
I m waiting for my real life to begin
Break:
//
// //
Verse:
When I awoke today,
suddenly nothing happened
//
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
//
And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane
//
I m walking in my old footsteps, once again
Chorus:
And you say, just be here now
Forget about the past,
your mask is wearing thin
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I m waiting for my real life to begin
Verse:
Any minute now,
my ship is coming in
//
I ll keep checking the horizon
//
And I ll check my machine, there s sure to be that call
//
It s gonna happen soon, soon, soon, it s just that times are lean
Chorus:
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart,
let the light shine in
Don t you understand
I already have a plan
I m waiting for my real life to begin
Bridge:

Outro:
On a clear day
//
I can see
///
See a very long way
On a clear day
//
I can see
/////
See a very long way
