[Verse 1]

G+G           E minorEm           D MajorD            C majorC
It won’t be long until I finish it all
                    D MajorD                E minorEm
Say goodbye to this place and be gone
                           B minorBm              C majorC   Dadd9Dadd9 G+G
I’ve been staring at these books for too long
       E minorEm               D MajorD        C majorC
And my friends and my family know
                     D MajorD            E minorEm
They love me so they say I should go
                        B minorBm         C majorC     Dadd9Dadd9
But I know they want to keep me at home


[Pre-Chorus]

         G+G E minorEm D MajorD    C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
And so I turn   away
                       B minorBm            C majorC    Dadd9Dadd9
Somehow it´s harder to leave than to stay
      G+G E minorEm D MajorD        C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
And I learned the way
                            B minorBm          C majorC   Dadd9Dadd9
Through the words that were spoken that day


[Chorus]

G+G
 Go see the world be free
C majorC
 Go sing your melody
E minorEm
 Go chase your destiny
C majorC
 Become the man you’ll be
G+G
 Don’t be afraid to leave
C majorC
 Open your eyes and see
E minorEm
 Just promise you’ll come back
C majorC              G+G
 Come back to me


[Verse 2]

                            C majorC
So I wake up and follow the sun
                           E minorEm
Through chaos and wonder I run
                               C majorC
My hopes and my dreams are now one
         G+G                                               C majorC
I said I travel the world, travel the world, travel the world one day
    E minorEm                                                  C majorC
And how was I supposed to know the sacrifices would be so great


[Pre-Chorus]

         G+G       C majorC E minorEm
And so I turn away
                                     C majorC
Somehow it´s harder to leave than to stay
      G+G             C majorC E minorEm
And I learned the way
                                        C majorC    Dadd9Dadd9
Through the words that were spoken that day


[Chorus]

G+G
 Go see the world be free
C majorC
 Go sing your melody
E minorEm
 Go chase your destiny
C majorC
 Become the man you’ll be
G+G
 Don’t be afraid to leave
C majorC
 Open your eyes and see
E minorEm
 Just promise you’ll come back
C majorC              Dsus4Dsus4
 Come back to me


[Bridge]

Dsus4Dsus4
We taught you to be strong and honest
                                                     C majorC
Listen to your heart don’t ever let nobody tell you how
                       Dsus4Dsus4
How you got to handle yours
Dsus4Dsus4
The days are getting darker and the price is getting harder to pay
                           C majorC
So won’t you go find your way
           Dadd9Dadd9
We’ll be okay


[Chorus]

G+G
 Go see the world be free
C majorC
 Go sing your melody
E minorEm
 Go chase your destiny
C majorC
 Become the man you’ll be
G+G
 Don’t be afraid to leave
C majorC
 Open your eyes and see
E minorEm
 Just promise you’ll come back
C majorC              G+G
 Come back to me
G+G
 Go see the world be free
C majorC
 Go sing your melody
E minorEm
 Go chase your destiny
C majorC
 Become the man you’ll be
G+G
 Don’t be afraid to leave
C majorC
 Open your eyes and see
E minorEm
 Just promise you’ll come back
C majorC              G+G C majorC
 Come back to me


[Outro]

E minorEm                            C majorC
 Just promise you’ll come back
              G+G C majorC
Come back to me
E minorEm                            C majorC
 Just promise you’ll come back
              G+G
