C                  D
Everybody can't be heros,

    G              C
But some can still try,

                             D
To make their lives a little different
F c Before the time it goes by,
    C                    D                F            C

C                     D         F                   C
Every morning on that ferry, my view is filled with you.
[Chorus]
C                               F
I'm gonna let my heart take me away,

C                                    F
I'm gonna jump a little further everyday,

She's there every single morning with about a hundred more,

C                      D        F                 C

   C                    D             F                  C
I always like to be the last one so I jump as she pulls away,

    C                     D         F          C
The gap gets a little bit wider the longer I delay
[Chorus 2]

I'm gonna let my heart take me away,

In a little lane off Australia square,

      Bb                 F                 C0
I got one picked out for you that looks so pretty,

But I got to make you notice that I'm there.

Well I started to make the papers and people began to bet,

C                       D               F                   C
Would I end up with the lady or would I just end up getting wet,
