*CAPO 2nd FRET*

(Original Key: A)


Verse 1:

G6                                                  C/D           D9
 I had to prove that I could make it alone now, but that's not me.
  G6                                                C/D           D9
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now, but that's not me.

Bridge 1:

        Am7                  D9
I could try to be big in the eyes of the world,
     Am7                   D9             Bm7            Emaj7, A6
What matters to me is what I could be, to just one girl...

Chorus 1:

      Emaj7                     A6                     Emaj7     A6
I'm a little bit scared, 'cos I haven't been home in a long time.

    Amaj7                 A7                      Dmaj7      D6  Dmaj7
You needed my love, and I know that I left at the wrong time.

Verse 2:

   G
My folks when I wrote them, told 'em what I was up to said;
C/D            D9
 That's not me.
               G
I went through all kinds of changes, took a look at myself and said;
C/D            D9
 That's not me.

Bridge 2:

  Am7                 D9
I miss my pad and the places I've known,
    Am7               D9                       Bm7    Emaj7, A6
And every night, as I lay there alone, I would dream...

Chorus 2:

  Emaj7                  A6                          Emaj7  A6
I once had a dream, so I packed up and split for the city.
  Fmaj7                  Bb6                   Fmaj7   Bb6
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty.

    Bbmaj7               Bb7                            Ebmaj7  Eb7
I'm glad I went, now I'm that much more sure that we're ready.

Coda:

  Emaj7                  A6                          Emaj7  A6
I once had a dream, so I packed up and split for the city.
  Emaj7                  A6                    Emaj7  A6
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty.
  Emaj7                  A6                          Emaj7  A6
I once had a dream, so I packed up and split for the city.
  Emaj7                  A6                    Emaj7  A6
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty.
