"Land Of Opportunity"

(verse 1)
            Bb         D             Gm      Gm/F
I'm sailing away, to a Land of Opportunity.
              Eb                   Eb/D            C                 F
The sun will shine, and birds will sing there everyday
             Bb         D                Gm              Gm/F
I'm sailing away, and I hope that you remember me.
        Eb            Eb/D              C              F
It was fun, we had our run. Hip hip hooray!


Gm           Gm/F#   Gm/F          Gm/E        Eb
     You said 'hello',       I loved you so,
       Eb/ Bb      F              F#
just like in a movie scene.
Gm           Gm/F#      Gm/F       Gm/E         Eb
     I want you to know,    I had to let go, 
     Eb/Bb         F
I'm falling in love again.

(verse 2)
             Bb        D                     Gm           Gm/F
I'm running away, to a place where you won't bother me.
         Eb          Eb/D            C        F
We won't talk for a while, we'll be okay.
                    Bb        D                  Gm              Gm/F
And I'm changing my name to a word that's really hard to say.
               Eb                 Eb/D              C          F
It's no one's fault, I'm just too young, and you're insane.


Gm        Gm/F#       Gm/F         Gm/E                 Eb
     I wasted my time,       I missed all the signs, 
       Eb/Bb         F         F#
and it ruined my holiday.
Gm        Gm/F#       Gm/F        Gm/E            Eb
     I want you to know,     I had to let go,
    Eb/Bb       F
I'm falling in love again

Cm                    Eb                    Bb                   Bbaug
     I just gotta believe there's something better.
Cm                    Eb                    Bb                F           Bbaug
     I just gotta believe there's something more than you and me.
Cm                      Eb                            F#  F  E  Eb D  Db C
     I've just gotta believe, I've just gotta believe.

I felt like a kid again.
