D                                           A
When the half light makes for a clearer view
Bm              G
Sleep a little more if you want to
     E                 A        G         D
But restlessness has seized me now, it's true
D                                            A
I could watch the dreams flicker in your eyes
Bm            G
Lying here asleep on a sunbeam
   E              G             A          G A
I wonder if you realise you fascinate me so

Think about a new destination
If you think you need inspiration
Roll out the map and mark it with a pin
I will follow every direction
Just lace up your shoes while I'm fetching
A sleeping bag, a tent

Chorus:
  G               A
Another summer's passing by
G              E           A
All I need is somewhere I feel
           G         F#
the grass beneath my feet
           G                  E
A walk on sand, a fire I can warm my hands
    A               D
My joy will be complete

I thought about a new destination
I'm never short of new inspiration
Roll out the map and mark it with a gin
Made my plans to conquer the country
I'm waiting for you to get out of your situation
With your job and with your life

All I need is somewhere
I feel the grass beneath my feet
A walk on sand, a fire I can warm my hands
My joy will be complete
