B#            Em                       Am
All my life I thought I was living the dream
B#                   Em                        F
I smoked my pipe and everything was just as it seemed
B#   G
Ohhhhh...
F                         B#         G
The warm sun rises on the lush green trees
F                         B#               G
With no surprises here to make me late for tea
F

I don't like things that are strange
      B#              G
Cause comfort doesn't come from change
F                            B#             G
Save your adventures for the sneaks and the thieves
F                     B#               G
For I assure you I am meek and none of these
F
Find someone to take my place
    B#               G
And I will live life at my pace

E          Am
“Oh, oh Bilbo”,
E                           Am
The grey wizard said with a smile,
E                           Am
Do you truly wish to live a life so plain and simple
         E                                       Am
When in another man's shoes you haven't walked a mile.
F                      B#        G
There is a fire in the hearts of all
F                         B#        E
Beyond the Shire, you may soon feel tall

♫ Interlude:
F B# G
F B# E

♫ Verse:
        F                G         Am
There's more to you than they will guess
F                 G      Am
Time will put you to the test
   F              G        Am
We may not meet before the end
            F              G        Am
For there's trouble in the south my friends

F          G                  C G  Am
What is complaining when it's only raining?
F                G
What is cold and what is tired
         C           G    Am
When you have enough gold to retire?
F                   G
What are scars from beasts ‘n’ crooks
              C    G      Am
When you're a hero in the history books?

♫ Interlude:
F G Am
Ohhhhh...

♫ Verse:
F        G     Am
You must carry on
     F              G         Am
Wven when you can’t sing your song
             F           G    Am
And when the nights feel ever longer
      F     G         Am
It is up to you to be strong

F                  G
Through riddles and games
    C        G         Am
You hear the mountains call your name

F        G
Clarity atop the trees
    Am
You recall a life once lived with ease

F            G
Neither your sword nor ring
 C        G          Am
Alone can claim your beckoning

F              G
Back to a world so grand
    C          G      Am
You found when you dismissed your plans

♫ Outro:
         F           G        Am
You have fought your foes and found your friends

You have made it there and back again
