Verse
Em
You've given me a home to sleep tonight
                C  
You've given my hope to stay alive
                       Em
I scream at the top of my lungs
                   C
Just to get my way
              Em
And maybe someday I'll finish school
                C 
And be all the things you want me to
        Em
But for now I will travel the world 
                   C
and see if it works

Prechorus:
Am                  Bm                 C
I can fight for myself but you need to know

Chorus:
G     Em                        
Baby, please
                    C
don't run away from me
I know that times are hard
       Am                       Bm        C
And if you leave now, life will still go on
G                 Em
And I'll chase my dreams
                   C
But you will never see
That's why this song was made
               Am               Bm                 C
Cause you need to know that I'm still the boy you loved

Verse 2
                 Em
You've given me strength to be a man
             C
Even when I could hardly stand
           Em               
And now I feel that you need me 
                   C
to do the same for you
           Em
Maybe some day I'll straighten up
                C
But college was never quite enough
       Em                                      C
So for now I will travel the world and make it work

Prechorus:
Am                Bm                 C
I can live on my own but you need to know

Chorus:
G     Em                        
Baby, please
                    C
don't run away from me
I know that times are hard
       Am                       Bm        C
And if you leave now, life will still go on
G                 Em
And I'll chase my dreams
                   C
But you will never see
That's why this song was made
               Am               Bm                 C
Cause you need to know that I'm still the boy you loved

Bridge
C Em C

C                    D
I know we are on our own
                   Em
We're not kids anymore
                   C
We're not kids anymore
      C                        D
And I know that we're far from home
                    Em
We're not kids anymore
                    C
we're not kids anymore

End on C
