  			Intro 

C                            Em 
I just wanna life that seems a little better than a dream 
Am                    G 
But I just can't seem to get on my feet 
C                  Em            Am 
So I gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go 
G 
I'll hope someday that you will know 
  
Verso 1:

C 
I sit back and think about the life I've had 
Em 
So much to change but I can't go back 
Am 
What happened to that kid? He used to play in the street 
G 
I think about that kid, he looked just like me 
C 
Had a smile, had a home, never grow old 
Em 
When we grow up, do we have to grow cold? 
Am 
Spent his whole life looking for salvation 
G 
Never realized nobody could save him 
C 
So all these words for what they're worth 
Em 
I know it's hard, I know it hurts 
Am 
And we laugh at the past 'cause it's how we learn 
G 
Welcome to the world, now let's watch it burn 
  


C                            Em 
I just wanna life that seems a little better than a dream 
Am                    G 
But I just can't seem to get on my feet 
C                  Em            Am 
So I gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go 
G 
I'll hope someday that you will know 
C                 Em            Am 
You gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go 
G 
I hope someday you'll understand 
  

Verso 2:
C 
Sometimes it's hidden, wish that I could see 
Em 
A future picture of an older me 
Am 
Would he be smiling and would he be happy? 
G 
Would he say a thousand words while looking right at me? 
C 
Is he different or the same old me? 
Em 
Is he still chasing after these same old dreams? 
Am 
I know that I'll never reach perfection 
G 
At least he could point me in the right direction 
C 
Some grow old, and some grow cold 
Em 
They'd sell their souls for a heart of gold 
Am 
God only knows where the hell would I be 
G 
If I had the old me sitting beside me 
  


C                            Em 
I just wanna life that seems a little better than a dream 
Am                    G 
But I just can't seem to get on my feet 
C                  Em            Am 
So I gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go 
G 
I'll hope someday that you will know 
C                 Em            Am 
You gotta let go, gotta let go, gotta let go 
G 
I hope someday you'll understand 
  
C                 Em 
No one knows what it's like to be alone 
Am               G 
Please, tell me, is anyone out there? 
C                 Em 
No one knows what it's like to be alone 
Am               G 
Please, tell me, is anyone out there? 
  
( C  Em ) 
  
Am                            G 
I just want a life that seems a little better than a dream
