[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D I am what I am G D An insecure mountain Bm A Long-winded fountain of useless advice D And I've been where I've been G D From Bolivar to Houston A D I never could get used to how fast it all went by
[Chorus]
G D And I'll take in a breath as the sun hits the ocean G Bm A Home is a place where they just let you be D A G D Go on and tell this old world that I'm tired of pretending A G D From here until the end, I'm gonna be what I will be
[Verse 2]
D I've seen what I've seen G D A highway of laughter Bm A The dream I was chasin' after always felt so far away D But I know what I know G D That there's no shame in cryin' G A D Just a beauty in tryin' to find your own way
[Chorus]
G D And I'll take in a breath as the sun hits the ocean G Bm A Home is a place where they just let you be D A G D Go on and tell this old world that I'm done with pretending A G D From here until the end, I'm gonna be what I will be
[Instrumental Break]
Em A Em A
[Verse 3]
D I'm gonna earn my scars G D From livin' too close to the fire Bm A Get kicked out of the choir for singing my own song D There's not one thing left G D That anyone can sell me A D Don't bother tryin' to tell me the way I live is wrong
[Chorus]
G D And I'll take in a breath as the sun hits the ocean G Bm A Home is a place where I'm just gonna be D A G D Go on and tell this old world that I'm through with pretending A G From here until the end, I'm gonna be D A G A From now until the end, I'm gonna be G D I'm gonna be what I will be
[Outro]
