Verse:
       A  B     E           A   B    E
I have often dreamed, of a far off place
         A    G#     C#m            A        B
Where a Great warm welcome will be waiting for me.
          A      B    E                A      E
Where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face
         A   G#     C#m            A                B
And a voice keeps saying this is where I’m meant to be;


First Chorus:
        E      B   C#m           B
I will find my way, I can go the distance
        E      B       C#m         B
I'll be there someday, if I can be strong
        E     F#m           G#m      F#m7
I know ev’ry mile, will be worth my while
        A  B    E   E/D#     Amaj7       E
I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong

2nd Chorus:
     E      B     C#m           B
I am on my way, I will go the distance
        E        B    C#m             B
I don't care how far, somehow I'll be strong
        E      F#m              C#m      F#m7
And a thousand years, would be worth the wait
         A    B  E   E/D#        Amaj7      
 E
It might take a lifetime, but somehow I’ll see it through.
