 I have journeyed,   end-less miles.
Am    G/B  Am              F      G
 Seen many harbours, where I took rest a while.

C   G/B  Am   C        F    Em  G    G7
 On this boat called, "near and far".

Dm  E

Dm                       E
 Only a wind of hope, my heart said,
Dm                           E    E7
 Braving mystic oceans to ar-rive.
Am                C                   D7/F#  F         E    F  G
 Those who do not leave and choose to stay,   many sur-vive.

 Be you dust, or be you a star.

To be what you must, just reach out for what you are.

    C      G/B Am      F  Em G
And though you travel, ma-ny roads.
Am       G/B Am          F             G         (C)
 There's but one way and that's... the one... you chose.
