Em       D/E      Em                        D/E
  It was an April morning when they told us we should go 
Em          D/E     Em             
  As I turn to you, you smiled at me 
    D/E
How could we say no? 
Em     D/E     Em                       D/E
  With all the fun to have, to live the dreams we always had 
Em D/E     Em                        D/E
   Oh, the songs to sing, when we at last return again 
Em    D/E      Em                            D/E
   Sending off a glancing kiss, to those who claim they know 
Em       D/E         Em                               D/E
   Below the streets that steam and hiss, the devil's in his hole 
Em D/E   Em                  D/E
   Oh to sail away, To sandy lands and other days 
Em D/E   Em                     D/E
   Oh to touch the dream, Hides inside and never seen. 
Em      D/E     Em                           D/E
   Into the sun the south the north, at last the birds have flown 
Em         D/E    Em                          D/E
   The shackles of commitment fell, In pieces on the ground 
Em D/E   Em                          D/E
   Oh to ride the wind, To tread the air above the din 
Em D/E   Em                   D/E
   Oh to laugh aloud, Dancing as we fought the crowd 
Em        D/E     Em                             D/E
  To seek the man whose pointing hand, The giant step unfolds 
Em              D/E      Em                           D/E
  With guidance from the curving path, That churns up into stone 
Em D/E    Em                               D/E
   If one bell should ring, in celebration for a king 
Em    D/E  Em                                            D/E
   So fast the heart should beat, As proud the head with heavy feet. 
Em      D/E     Em                                D/E
   Days went by when you and I, bathed in eternal summers glow 
Em        D/E      Em                  D/E
   As far away and distant, Our mutual child did grow 
Em D/E    Em                         D/E
   Oh the sweet refrain, Soothes the soul and calms the pain 
Em D/E  Em                     D/E
   Oh Albion remains, sleeping now to rise again 
F#m/E Em D/E F#m/E Em D/E
Em   D/E    Em                       D/E
Wandering & wandering, What place to rest the search
    Em     D/E     Em                      D/E 
The mighty arms of Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth 
Em   D/E    Em   D/E
    Em     D/E     Em                      D/E 
The mighty arms of Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth 
         Em D/F# G Am Bm C D C/E D/F# C/G D
From the earth... 
Em D/F# G Am Bm C D C/E D/F# C/G D
Earth...
Em     D/F#     G           Am         Bm   C           D C/E D/F# C/G D
I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way
Em     D/F#     G           Am         Bm   C           D C/E D/F# C/G D
I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way
       F#m/E  Em                      D/E
Oh the mighty arms of Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth.
