Verse 1:
        G5           F5
        Fly into the rising sun,
        G5             F5
        faces smiling ev'ryone.
        G5            F5

        I feel it in my heart.

        But I'm at home and I, I just don't belong.


        G5       G5            G5         F5    F5
        So far away from the garden we love,
        G5           G5            G5         F5    F5 G5 G5 G5 F5 F5
        she is what moves in the soul of a dove.


        G5            G5            G5             F5     F5
        Soon I shall see just how black was the night,
        G5           G5           G5       F5     F5 G5 G5 C5 C5 C5 C5
        when we're alone in the city of light.


        G5 D5 G5 C5 G5 C5 D5 G5 G5 G5 G5
