  "They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul.
| A |             D |           E |                     A |
 A voyager, and a settler, they both have a distant goal.
| A |             D |              E |           A |
 If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside.
   | A |                D |       E |           E |
Well, it really doesn't matter as long as I can tell myself
| E |        A |
 I've always tried."

Life is motion, move on
A                         E
Like a wind that's always blowing
        Bm            F#m
Life is flowing, move on
F#m                     D
Like the sunrise in the morning

Life is dawning, move on
A                    E
How I treasure every minute

Being part of, being in it

Verse

A                     D
 I've travelled every country
     E               A
I've travelled in my mind
A                    D
 It seems we're on a journey
  E                      A
A trip through space and time
A                       D
 And somewhere lies the answer
   E                 A
To all the questions why
A                      D
 What really makes the difference
  E                  E
Between all dead and living things
    E             A
The will to stay alive

Verse

A                        D
 The morning breeze that ripples
    E              A
The surface of the sea
A                  D
 The crying of the seagulls
     E          A
That hover over me
A               D
 I see it and I hear it
    E           A
But how can I explain
A                  D
 The wonder of the moment
   E            E
To be alive, to feel the sun
     E             A
That follows every rain
