Verse 1:
LA
I had to prove that I could make it alone
MI7sus4 MI7
But that's not me
LA
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
MI7sus4 MI7
But that's not me
SIm7/FA# MI7
I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
SIm7/FA# MI7 DO#m7 FA#maj7 SOL#m7/FA#
What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl
Chorus 1
FA#maj7
I'm a little bit scared
SOL#m7/FA# FA#maj7 SOL#m7/FA#
Cause I haven't been home in a long time
SI
You needed my love
SI7 MI MI7
And I know that I left at the wrong time
Verse 2:
My folks when I wrote them
Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me
I went through all kinds of changes
Took a look at myself and said that's not me
I miss my pad and the places I've known
And every night as I lay there alone I would dream
Chorus 2
FA#maj7
I once had a dream
SOL#m7/FA# FA#maj7 SOL#m7/FA#
So I packed up and split for the city
SOLmaj7 LAm7/SOL SOLmaj7 LAm7/SOL
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
DO DO7 FA FA7
I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready
Coda (repeat to fade):
FA#maj7
I once had a dream
SOL#m7/FA# FA#maj7 SOL#m7/FA#
So I packed up and split for the city
FA#maj7 SOL#m7/FA# FA#maj7 SOL#m7/FA#
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
