E5 
May you travel bright and cheery 
         A5                          E5 
the many roads ahead you'll have to blaze 
 
gonna be hard times to make you weary 
       A5           B5              E5 
it's a part of the passing of the days. 
 

A5                          E5 
With all the people in the middle 
        B5                   A5                 E5 
selling things that self-destruct and make us bleed. 
F#5                    G#5 
One day it's all gonna fall down 
     A5                                  B5 
then you find out you're all you really need. 
 
 
E5 
May you wander through the changes 
         A5                            E5 
with the warmth of the sun behind the haze. 
 
When your lifestyle quickly rearranges 
        A5          B5              E5 
may you follow the passing of the days. 
 

A5                      E5 
We trade our money for magic words 
     B5            A5                   E5 
like Dumbo flyin' high in the nightly show 
F#5                         G#5 
you think you can't fly without them 
    A5                                B5 
but someday when it happens you will know 
 

E5 
May you travel bright and cheery 
         A5                          E5 
the many roads ahead you'll have to blaze 
 
gonna be hard times to make you weary 
         A5           B5              C#5  B5 A5 
it's all part of the passing of the days, 
        F#5       B5              E5 
may you follow the passing of the days.
