Verse 1
And the [G]slightest [D]confrontation, was [G]dissolved before the [D]start
[A]Each [D]man [G][D]belonged [G]to [D]each as one clear hand
Asking [G]only comfort [D]creation, he [G]divided to the [D]least
[A]Each [D]man [G][D]o-pen, [G]set [D]sights to new lands[D]
Chorus
[D] And do remember you, the [A]first to venture, first to gain
[D]Exploring daylight, [G]clearer than the [D]Talloplanic views
Bridge
And [G]there they were inside, the Moorglade to move and to chant, all through
force to [D]position
[G] As rhythm raced inside the ship came alive, and was struck to the soul of
[D]perception
[G] And raised our head to space, beyond all the mass and the mountains
The sun they were [D]headed, headed

Verse 3
Word of [G]life rejoice the [D]sunlight, course the [G]flower to open [D]wide
[A][D]O-pen, [G]they [D]ride, [G]climb [D]into the dark sky
Such a [G]moment kindly [D]lingered, they set [G]sail from [D]Tallowcross
Outro
[D]A light to lead you, is taken from the massland to the East
[D]As words are spoken, all courage be the token as the feast
[D]Wide eyed removing, the precious moment we have seen
[D]
