B
Walking in the sand

Em                     B
 Thinking of things, adventures in my mind

F#                    G#m
Tall ships that sail across the ocean wide

B
They won't wait for me

Em                       B
 See the way they glide away so gracefully

F#                      G#m
 And with tomorrow what will become of me
[Pre-Chorus]
     B        D#m          G#m
They leave me so much to explain

            F#                   B
That's the start of our guessing game
[Chorus]
          B            A          E         B
There are times when I think I've found the truth

          B            A             F#   B
There are times when I know that I'm wrong

        B           A      E       B
And the days when I try to hide my fears

          A                      B
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

A                                B
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
[Bridge]
A                    B
Wonder why we try so hard

A                    B
Wonder why we try at all

    D#m                     G#m
You wonder why the world is turning around

D#m                 B         F#
In the end it won't matter at all
[Instrumental] | B A | E B | | B A | F# B | | B A | E B | | A | B | | A | B | [Verse 2]
B
Standing in the town

Em                  B
 Looking at people, counting their frowns

F#              G#m
 Unhappy faces, hurrying around

   B
So blind they cannot see

Em                       B
 All of these things the way life ought to be

F#                      G#m
 And with tomorrow what will they make of me
[Pre-Chorus]
   B         D#m          G#m
It leaves me so much to explain

            F#                   B
That's the start of our guessing game
[Chorus]
          B            A          E         B
There are times when I think I've found the truth

          B            A             F#   B
There are times when I know that I'm wrong

        B           A      E       B
And the days when I try to hide my fears

          A                      B
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

A                                B
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
