[Verse]
E D C D
Just for a short while, on a steep hill incline
E D C D
He runs from time to time, treading out a pace
E D C D
A path that will be so hard to follow
E D C D
Backbreaking precision, breathtaking speed
E D C D
If he tries his luck he will succeed
[Chorus]
F C
Watches set at Greenwich Time
G
The watch he keeps, he cannot sleep
F C
Sees a ship out in the night
G
He hears their call, he sees their light
F
This time
C G
He’s out on his own for the first time
F
He’s out on his own 'till the next time
C G
He’s out on his own
[Instrumental]

Sees a ship out in the night

He hears their call, he sees their light

This time

He’s out on his own for the first time

He’s out on his own 'till the next time
C G
He’s out on his own
[Outro]
F C G
He’s out on his own
F C G
He’s out on his own
F C G
He’s out on his own
