W^Calt Grace, desperately hating his wh^Fole place Dreamed to discover a new space ^Am And buried himself alive ^F Inside his ^Cbasement, tongue on the side of his face meant ^F He's working away on displacement ^Am And what it would take to survive ^F

'C^Fause when you're done with thi^Ams world ^{G F} You know the n^Amext is up to y^Gou And his w^Cife told his kids^F he was crazy^G And his friends s^Caid he'd fail if he tried ^{F G} But with a w^Cill to work ha^Frd And a l^Amibrary c^Dard He took a h^Fomemade, fan-blade, one-man submarine ri^Gde ^C

That m^Corning, the sea was mad and I mean it ^F Waves as big as he'd seen it ^Am Deep in his dreams at home ^F From ^Cdry land He rolled it over to wet sand ^F Closed the hatch up with one hand ^Am And pedaled off alone ^F

'C^Fause when you're done with thi^Ams world ^{G F} You know the ^Amnext is up to y^Gou And for ^Conce in his l^Fife it was q^Guiet As he l^Cearned how to ^Fturn in the ^Gtide And the ^Csky was a f^Flare When he came up ^Amfor air ^D In his h^Fomemade, fan-blade, one-man submar^Gine ride ^C

One ^Cevening When weeks had passed since his leaving ^F The call she'd planned on receiving ^Am Finally made it ho^Fme She accepte^Cd The news she'd never expected ^F The operator connected ^Am A call from Tokyo ^F

'C^Fause when you're done with thi^Ams world ^{G F} You know the ^Amnext is up to y^Gou Now his f^Criends Bring him up when ^Fthey're drinking ^G At the b^Car with his name on^F the side ^G And they s^Cmile when they c^Fan As they speak^Am of a man ^D Who took a h^Fomemade, fan-blade, one-man sub^Gmarine ride ^C
