A                 Bm                           A  | A7 |
  Endless travel,    can't remember where I've been.
Bm                       Dm		    
  Lying in this hammock,    feeling tragic 
B                                    A
  Like the ones you hear so much about.
      F#m     B7                  D
Can't wait to tell you where I've been.


VERSE2:
A                 Bm                       A  | A7 |
  Skim the water,     South Atlantic ocean grey
Bm                         A | A7 |
  Always searching for his ma__ate
Bm                  Dm	
  Lonely albatross,    cannot find them
B
  The ones you care so much about
A         F#m             B7          D
  They're lost and you're losing your way.

A                    Bm
  Too much pressure,    gin and tonic-water
Dm                    B                                 A	
  They'll forget you,   the ones you care so much about
F#m          B7            D   | A |
  They'll surrender to the need.
