Intro: A D Bm D A 

 
F#m D         A 
Oh my, just another day 
        F#m                    D                    A 
When I look in the mirror and I am turning pretty truly grey 
    F#m               D                      A 
And I ain't waitin' around this town for my ship to come in 
D                                   E 
We can't spend half our lives just daydreamin’ 

 
A  
One of these days, baby and it won't be long 
      D 
We're out of here, over that horizon 
    Bm 
The day will come 
     D                       A 
And we'll be walkin' in the sunshine 
A 
All I want is a better life for you and me 
D 
Far away, it'll be an odyssey 
Bm 
Hand in hand 
     D                        A 
And we'll be walkin' in the sunshine 

A D Bm 

     D                        A

F#m D             A 
Oh my, these are scary times 
        F#m                    D                        A 
There's bullet flyin' and streets are burning, ’I've a worried mind 
   F#m       D                A 
I find my deliverance by the riverside 
          D                                            E 
And I'll bathe my head in the cool, cool water and be satisfied...Yes I will!

Far away, it'll be an odyssey

E 
Let's set sail for a brand new life 
           D                    A 
Where the vines and the olives grow 
E 
Full steam ahead!" to a foreign land 
           D                   D                  E 
Where the weather suits, the weather suits, the weather suits my clothes
