Intro:
A    Em7 G (x2) 
(Hey yeah, hey yeah-ah-ah) 

verse 1 
A                  Em7      G 
I took it all, all on my back 

I picked it up on my shoulders 
A                   Em7          G 
Thought it was all, all I could have 
                           Em7 
And it was better, it was better than nothing 
A                       Em7       G 
Now I know, I know that isn't true 

What have I got to show 
Em7 
After seeing it through 
A                     Em7     G  G/F# 
Now I know, I know a few things 

Pre-Chorus 
           Em7   A 
And I can feel it 
 Em7       A 
Coming towards me 

 
            Gmaj7                          D   D7sus2  D 
It took me so long to get here but here I am 

(It took me so long I can't believe it) 
            Gmaj7                          D   D7sus2  D 
It took me so long to get here but here I am 

(It took me so long but here I am) 
Gmaj7 
Everything I tried and 
                           D   D7sus2  D 
All the things I dreamed of 

(It took me so long I can't believe it) 
          Gmaj7                             D   D7sus2  D 
It took me so long to get here but here I am 

verse 2 
A                       Em7   G 
If I could do it, do it all again 
                                       A 
I can't safely say I wouldn't change it 
                            Em7      G 
There were things left me feeling ashamed 
A                           Em7   G 
Like how I didn't stand up for myself 
                Em7             A 
I didn't even try to see the truth 
                          Em7        G   G/F# 
But the truth led to you calling my name 

Pre-Chorus 
         Em7            A 
And it shot like an arrow 
Em7       A 
Into my heart 

 
            Gmaj7                          D   D7sus2  D 
It took me so long to get here but here I am 

(It took me so long I can't believe it) 
            Gmaj7                          D   D7sus2  D 
It took me so long to get here but here I am 

(It took me so long but here I am) 
Gmaj7 
Everything I tried and 
                           D   D7sus2  D 
All the things I dreamed of 

(It took me so long I can't believe it) 
          Gmaj7                             D   D7sus2  D 
It took me so long to get here but here I am 

Bridge 
F#      A            C#m 
All my systems were failing 
                    B   B4  B               A 
And it didn't seem fair, no it didn't seem fair 
             F# 
But it made way 
     A             C#m 
For something different 
                       B   B4              B 
I could feel it in the air, feel it in the air
