D
Three hours from sundown

D
Jeremy flies

D
Hoping to keep

    G            D
The sun from his eyes

                  G
East from the city

                D
And down to the cave

D
In search of a master

D
In search of a slave
[Verse 2]
D                       C
Three hours from London

          D
Giacomo's free

D
Taking his woes

G           D
Down to the sea

                      G
In search of a lifetime

                  D
To tell when he's home

D
In search of a story

G                 D
That's never been known
[Interlude] D G D [Verse 3]
D                          C
Three hours from speaking

           D
Everyone's flown

                  G
Not wanting to be

                D
Seen on their own

                      G
Three hours is needed

                    D
To leave from them all

                      C
Three hours to wonder

                   D
And three hours to fall

The sun from his eyes

East from the city

                D
And down to the cave

D
In search of a master

D
In search of a slave
