[Verse 1]
                                  Am
                                  With
    Dm          Am           Bb           C
the dusk in his hair and the world yet to see
    Dm         C            Bb          C
The travelling man he walks slower than me
   Dm          Cm         Bb            C
He buttons his collar and laughs at the rain
    Dm          C          Bb           Cm
And finds him a highway to travel
    Dm           C          C            Dm
   Again

[Verse 2]
                                                    Am
                                                    With
    Dm          Am           Bb           C
the salt in his hair and the world yet to see
    Dm         C            Bb          C
The sea-loving man he walks down to the quay
   Dm          Cm         Bb            C
He buttons his collar and laughs at the rain
    Dm           C        Bb           Cm
And finds him an ocean to travel
    Dm           C          C            Dm
   Again
    Dm           C          C            Dm
    Dm           Dm         C            Am
    Dm           Dm         Dm           Bb       A


[Verse 3]
                                                    Am
                                                    But
  Dm          Am           Bb             C
a man follows signs from a room hung with blinds
     Dm               C            Bb            C
To a ship which still waits in the depths of his mind
    Dm           Cm         Bb          C
The harbours are broken the lighthouses dim
    Dm         C           Bb       Cm
The sirens are silent it’s only the wind
    Dm        Cm            Bb          C
The stars rearrange and the waters will roll
      Dm       C           Bb           Bb
As he travels alone in the land              of the
     Dm
     Soul
