Em                                  A7  
    Breathe, breathe in the air
Em                            A7  
    Don' t be afraid to care
Em                            A7  
    Leave, don' t leave me
Em                                    A7  
Look around and choose your own ground

C7+  
Long you live and high you fly
Bm7  
Smiles you' ll give and tears you' ll cry
F7+  
All you touch and all you see
    G                          D9    D#9  
Is all your life will ever be

Em                  A7  
    Run, rabbit run
Em                                 A7  
Dig that hole, forget the sun
Em                                         A7  
    And when at last the work is done
Em                                              A7  
Don' t sit down, it' s time to dig another one

C7+  
Long you live and high you fly
     Bm7  
But only if you ride the tide
F7+  
Balanced on the biggest wave
     G                     D9      D#9    Em  
You race towards an early grave
