[B]
Many [E] the [B] time [E] I've been [D#m] mistaken, [B]
[D#] and [G#m] many [D#] times [G#m] confused.
Yes, [E] and I've [G#m]
often [F#] felt [E] [F#]
[B] forsaken, [D#] and [G#m]
certainly [D#] miss [G#m] you.
But [C#m]
I'm [G#m] [E] alright, [C#m]
[E] I'm [B] alright, I'm just weary [C#m] to [F#] my [G#] bone.
[C#] Still [F#] you don't expect to be bride [B] and [C#] bond, [F#]
[B] so [G#m] [B] far [E]
[D#m] away from [D#] home.
[G#m] [E] So [B] far
[F#] away [B] from home.
And I don't know a soul [E] who's [F#] not [E] been [F#] [B] [D#]
[G#m] through [D#] feels
[G#m]
I [B] don't know a dream that's [G#m] [F#]
[B] not been [E] [F#] shat
[B]
[F#] [G#m] Or driven to [D#] [G#m] its knees
But [C#m] it's [B]
[E] alright, [C#m] [E] it's all
[B] We've lived so [C#m] well [F#] so [G#]
long
[C#] Still, [F#]
when I [D#m] think of the [F#] road we're [B]
[F#] traveling on
[B] I [G#m]
[B] wonder [E] [F#] what [D#]
[G#m] [E] can help it
[B] I wonder [F#] what [B] went wrong
And I dreamed I was dying
And I [F#] dreamed [G#m] that my [F#] soul rose [D#] [G#m] unexpectedly
[B] And [F#] looking back down at me
[E] [C#m] [B] Smiled [F#] reassuringly
[B]
[E] [F#]
And I [B] dreamed I was flying
And [F#] high up above my [D#m] [D#] eyes
Could [G#m] clearly see
[F] The [F#] Statue of Liberty
[E] [F#] [D#m] Sailing away to [F#] sea
