D G D
G D I need to find a way home, on the moon to be alone
D G D And so we make our way through the sand of a sullen day

G D Whittle away, whittle away Chorus:
A D A D Lift away and float it on into space

Verse 2: I made it up in my room, from a dream it is rough hewn (Home) Whittle away, whittle away I make a vessel for home, carve it out with a gemstone (Home) Whittle away, whittle away Land of sorrow, sift away through the sand of a sullen day (Home) Whittle away, whittle away Dreaming in ether, leave atmosphere, breathing in Neptune's chandelier (Home) Whittle away, whittle away Chorus 1st Verse & Chorus fast Outro (still fast):
D A C G
D It's almost time to ride, align, melt these hemispheres into one
A C
G Dull and Shine intertwine, I'm torn away, I'm up and down, it's almost time
D A Now I am sailing, sailing
C G Through the light and the gloom of the sun and the moon
D A And I am sailing, sailing
C G Through the light and the gloom of the sun and the moon
D A C G Hey, hey moon, I think I figured it out, I think I'm coming about
D A C Now I am sailing, sailing through the light and the gloom
G D My whole world is in tune and so much clearer now...
