[A]
[E]
[F#] [E] There are times I fear I lose myself.
[Am] I don't know who I [E] am
I get caught [F#m] up in [E] struggle and
[B] strain
With my [E] back against the stone wall
[A] My finger in the [E] dam
[A] Losing [F#m] strength [E] and going down [B]
again
And I take a look around me
My [A] eyes can't find [E] the sun
[A] There's nothing [F#m] wild
[E] As [A] far as I can [B] see
[E] Then my heart turns to
[A] Alaska [E]
and
freedom
on the run
I [F#m] can hear [E] her spirit [A] calling [B] me
[A]
[F#m] [E] [A] [F#m] I can [E] rest there
[A] [F#m] [E]
[A] [F#m] I will [B] be strong
[A]
[E] [A] [F#m] I'll [E] find peace [A] there
[F#m] [E]
[A] [F#m] [B] Where [E] I belong
[E]
[A] Oh
[F#m] [E]
[A] [F#m] [E]
I know
Sometimes [A] I [E] worry
on [A] worldly ways and [E] means
[A] And I can [F#m] see [E] the future [A]
killing [B] me
[E] On a misbegotten
Highway the [A] prophecies and [E] dreams
[A] A road [F#m] to nowhere [E] and [B] eternity
[E] And I know
It's just changes.
[A] Yes and mankind
[E] Marching on
[A] I [F#m] know we [E] can't [A] live in [B] yesterday
[E] But compared to what we're losing and [A] what it means
[E] To me [A] I'd give my life [E] and throw [A] the rest [B] away
[F#m] [E] I [A] [F#m] could [E] rest there
[A] [F#m] [E]
[A] [F#m] I will be [B] strong
[A]
[F#m] [E] [A] [F#m] I'll [E] find peace [A] there
[F#m] [E]
[A] [F#m] [B] I
[E] [A] Belong
[F#m] [E]
[A] [F#m] [B] Where [E]
I belong
