D MajorD
This is an anthem for the homesick, for the beaten,

           E minorEm  F# minorF#m
the lost, the broke, the defeated.

        B minorBm          E minorEm  B minorBm
A augmentedA song for the heartsick, for the standbys,

E minorEm                     F#F#
Living life in the shadow of goodbye.

A augmentedA      D MajorD
Do you remember when we learned how to fly?

         A augmentedA               F# minorF#m
We'd play make-believe; we were young and had time on our side.

D MajorD
You're stuck on the ground,

   DmDm      D MajorD
Got lost, can't be found.

    G+G             A augmentedA
Just remember that you're still alive.

I'll carry you home.

         A augmentedA
No, you're not alone.

        D MajorD
Keep marching on,

This is worth fighting for,

          G+G
You know we've all got battle scars.

      D MajorD
You've had enough,

        A augmentedA
But just don't give up.

        D MajorD
Stick to your guns,

You are worth fighting for.
          G+G
You know we've all got battle scars.

       D MajorD
Keep marching on.

This is a call to the soldiers, the fighters,

        A augmentedA
the young, the innocent, and righteous.

              D MajorD
We've got a little room to grow.

    F#F#         B minorBm
Better days are near,

G+G            A augmentedA
Hope is so much stronger than fear.

D MajorD
So if you jump, kid, don't be scared to fall.

          DbDb          F#F#     G+G
We'll be kings and queens in this dream, all for one, one for all.

           B minorBm
You can light up the dark,

            G+G
There's a fire in your heart,

               A augmentedA
Burner brighter than ever before.

On and on, like we're living on a broken record.

    D MajorD
Hope is strong, but misery's a little quicker.

      B minorBm
Sit, and we wait, and we drown there,

                   D MajorD
Thinking, "Why bother play when it's unfair?"

     G+G
They say life's a waste, I say they lack belief.

       A augmentedA
They tell me luck will travel, I tell 'em that's why I've got feet.

B minorBm
Left, right, left, right,

BB          B minorBm
Moving along to the pulse of a heartbeat.

G+G
This could be the last chance you have to fly.

A augmentedA
Do you like the ground? Want it to pass you by?

B minorBm
Man, you had it all when you were just kid.

D MajorD
Do you even remember who you were back then?

G+G
What do you want in life? Will you be twice as strong?

A augmentedA
What would you sacrifice? What are you waiting on?

   B minorBm
Don't stop, march on.
