A#                                G#    A#
Who steers the ship through the stormy sea?
                      A#     C#
If hope is lost, then so are we
       E         B         E       B
While some eyes search for one to guide us
 C#        G#       C#
Some are staring at me

Chorus:
   F#    B C#
But I'm no hero
         D#  C#       F# A#
Though I wish I could be
    D#
For I am just a boy
Too young to be sailing
I am just a boy
        C#            F#
And my future is unveiling
            C#              G#
And I'm so frightened of failing

While some eyes search for one to guide us
Some are staring at me

Chorus:
But I'm no hero
Though I wish I could be
For I am just a boy
Too young to be sailing
I am just a boy
And my future is unveiling
And I'm so frightened of failing
