Somebody Will chords by Sassafrass

A           D
Our New World is so close
         A               D         Em           D
Mars has treasures we're only just starting to find
       A             D            Em          D               Gadd9       A
Frozen mountains and crimson dust waiting for footprints that will not be mine.
  F        C       Dm             A
A hundred years to run the first tests
  F         C               G
Another to raise the first dome.



     C          F#m       Em7    A5
The moon, then Mars, then Titan next
Gm           Dm             A
a life time to touch each new home.

      A           D
And I want it so much.
         A            D              Em         D
Close my eyes
I can taste the Mars dust in the air.
       A            D              Em         D           Gadd9      A
In the darkness the space stations shimmer in orbits that I will not share.
    G              D
But I’ll teach the student
       Em         D
Who’ll manage the fact’ry
     G           D                Bm       A
That tempers the steel that makes colonies strong.
    G              D            Em       D
And I’ll write the program that runs the computer
     G              D               Bm         A
That charts out the stars where our rockets belong.
        Dm        A       Bb           F
It will never get easy to wake from my dream
         Gm       Dm          Em      A5
When the future I dream of is so far away.
    G D   G          D
But I am willing to sacrifice
 G           D              Em       F#m
something I don’t have For something I won’t have
   GM7       A Asus   D
but somebody will someday.

           A         D
And it feels like a waste.
          A           D          Em       D
All this working and waiting and battling time
A         D            Em         D            Gadd9     A
And all for a kingdom that none of my efforts will ever make mine
F        C         Dm       A
But brick by brick the Pyramids rose
F           C         G
With most hidden under the sand
C       F#m      Em7      A5
So life by life the project grows
    Gm           Dm        A
In ways I might not understand.
     A        D
I am voyaging too
A        D             Em          D              Gadd9          A
We will need the foundation as much as the dome for those worlds to come true
G                  D           Em          D
And I’ll clerk the office that handles the funding
     G          D          Bm          A
That raises the tower that watches the sky.
    G              D              Em          D
And I’ll staff the bookstore that carries the journal
     G          D               Bm          A
That sparks the idea that makes solar sails fly.
         Dm       A         Bb         F
It takes so many sailors to conquer an ocean
         Gm      Dm        Em          A5
And so many more when it’s light-years away
G D   G         D
But I am willing to sacrifice
 G           D              Em         F#m
Something I don’t have for something I won’t have
    GM7      A Asus        D
But somebody will someday.

        A       D
It’s so easy to run.
      A         D                Em      D
Hide away in my books, games and fantasy plans
A         D      Em               D       Gadd9     A
Let them call me a coward who can’t face reality’s grownup demands
F     C       Dm      A
But if I love my fantasy worlds
         F       C           G
It’s not fantasy love that I feel.
    C       F#m     Em7     A5
And so much more I feel for this
    Gm            Dm
The world that created them
Gm          Dm
World we create with them
Gm            Dm            A
One chance to make them all real.

     A       D
And I know we won’t stop.
              A        D           Em          D
We’ve planned too many wonders for one little star.
          A         D           Em           D          Gadd9        A
Though so often the present may seem too complacent to take us that far.
    G              D         Em            D
But I’ll tell the story and I’ll draw the picture
    G              D          Bm        A
And I’ll sing the anthem that banishes doubt
G           D            Em           D
And host the convention that summons the family
      Em         F#m       G            A
That carries the fire that never burns out
          Dm      A          Bb          F
There are so many chances to give up the journey
Gm       Dm           Em      A5
Especially when it’s so easy to stay
G D  G           D
But I am willing to sacrifice
 G           D              Em         F#m
Something I don’t have for something I won’t have
GM7          A
And not only me
G  D   G          D
But we are willing to sacrifice
G             D              Em          F#m
Something we don’t have for something we won’t have
GM7         A
So somebody will
GM7      A  Asus         D
So somebody will someday.
