Opening chord: Gmaj7 [3202xx]

[Verse 1]

N.C.        G                               C
You want to write a novel, make beautiful music
                          G
Act in the theatre with inspiring humans
G
Learn a language and run like the wind
                D
Help people fit in, travel to every country
    C                                                        G
And make a million dollars and smile when your children have babies
                               Gmaj7
Make the heart your home, inviting and warm

[Chorus 1]

     Em               C      G            C
You want an amazing life but you can’t decide
              G       A                 C      G
You think you have to be fully formed already, don’t ya?
             Em     C        G            Cmaj7
You want an amazing life but you can’t decide...
                          A         C
You don’t have to be just one thing
                           G
But you have to start with something


[Verse 2]

D                      C          G
You’ll be a little bit older in October
                                D
You’ve reneged on your pre-birth promise
        C                  G
Now you think that this story is over
                          D
Let me encourage you to know
          C                  G
You will feel it when it is over, it feels like hell
                           D          C
Take it as a sign you need time to be still
    G            C      G       [single strums: 320xxx  330xxx  320xxx]
And listen for a while


[Chorus 2]

N.C.           Em     C        G            C
You want this amazing life but you can’t decide
              G       A                 C      G
You think you have to be fully formed already, don’t ya?
             Em     C        G            Cmaj7
You want an amazing life but you can’t decide
                          A         C
You don’t have to be just one thing
                           G
But you have to start with something

                          A         C
You don’t have to be just one thing
                           G
But you have to start with something

                           A         C
You do not have to be just one thing
                     N.C.              G
But you have to start...with something
