Strum
D-DU-UDU
 The young boy rose  his pretty face,
 All for to feel  the salty spray.
 When storms are mustering,  they say
 I'll come and take  you all away.
 I am a traveller  by trade,
 I only have  what I have made.
 A fortune teller  too they say,
 And I can take  you all away.
 Listen listen  to him do.
 He is the one  who is for you.
 Listen,  they say
 He'll come and take  us all away.
He--------
 (chorus)
 And over there  the young man stayed,
 Upon on the rocks  so rough and grey.
 Watching the boy,  watching the day
 Thinking of how  he came  to be.
 A young man he,  he is so real,
 And never more  to go astray.
 He is of value  now they say,
 And he can take  himself  away.
 (chorus)
