Intro: G Asus2 Bm A
[G]If you want to be brave[Asus2][Bm]
And reach for the top of the s[A]ky
[G]And the farthest point on th[Asus2]e horiz[Bm]on[A]
[G]Do you know who you'll meet there
[Asus2]Great sold[Bm]iers and seafarers
Artists and dreamers
Who ne[A]ed to be close, close to the light[G][Bm]
They ne[A]ed to be in danger of burning by f[Em7]ire [G][Bm]
And I[G], I want to get th[Bm]ere[A]
[G]I, I want to b[A]e o[Bm]ne
[A]One who is touched by the sun[Em7]
[A]One who is touched by the sun[Em7]
[G]Often I want to walk[Asus2][Bm]
The safe side of the street[A]
[G]And lull myself to sleep
And d[Asus2]ull my [Bm]pain[A]
[G]But deep down inside I know
I've got[Asus2] to learn fr[Bm]om the greats
Earn my right to be living
Let my win[A]gs of desire
Soar over the ni[Em7]ght
[A]I need to let them say
"She must have been m[Em7]ad"
And I[G], I want to get th[Bm]ere[A]
[G]I, I want to b[A]e o[Bm]ne
[A]One who is touched by the sun[Em7]
[A]One who is touched by the sun[Em7]
[G]I've got to le[A]arn fr[Bm]om the greats
Earn my right to be living
With every br[A]eath that I take
Every heartbeat
And I[G], I want to get th[Bm]ere[A]
[G]I, I want to b[A]e o[Bm]ne
[A]One who is touched by the sun[Em7]
[A]One who is touched by the sun[Em7][G][D]
