Misc Musicals – Big Fish - Fight The Dragons (Guitar)

E                                  A
I've never been a man who lived an office

B                              E
I've never been a man behind a desk

                                     A
I've always been a man who said that staying

F#m
The kind who's looking forward to the

C#m               F#m7
People say that's irresponsible

B7                     E
People tell me stay at home

    C#m     C                    E
But I'm not made for things like mowing

         F#m
lawns or apron strings

A                 Am
I'm my best, when not at rest

     E                       C#m
So I fight the dragons and I storm the

      A                     B
And I win a battle or two

               E
Then comes the day it's time,

            A                    B
I'm packing up and I am bringing all my

                E       D
stories home to you

E                                 A
All I can see is miles ahead with miles to

B                                       E  D
All I can feel is wind and sun and sky

E                                     A
Stop for a coffee, make a friend, and pray

F#m
'Cause there's one more adventure waiting

B
'round another bend

        E                       C#m
Where I fight the dragons and I storm the

      A                     B
And I win a battle or two

           E
But then a feeling comes

           A
Like fifty thousand drums all banging,

B                         E
"Bring my stories home to you"

     D                          A
And I wonder as I wander on the road from

Am                                   E
Exactly what you think of where I've been

       D
Do you know I joined the circus, met a

A
mermaid, fought a war?

Am
Do you know I think of you through thick and

G#m
thin?

        D
Because even though I'm making deals and

C#m
bringin' people joy

    B
I'm usually only thinking of my boy

          A             E
Out there on the road I pray

       D              B
You'll come to my one day

              E
And say, Lets fight the dragons and then

C#m
storm the castle

        A                           B
Till we win what needs to be won

            E                            F#m
So when I'm old and tired, you'll do the job

                A       B               D  A
You'll be there telling stories to your son

       E                        C#m
And we fight the dragons and we storm the

      A                  B
And I do the best that I can

         E                         A
For everybody knows that's how the story

             B                 C#m   F#m
To turn each boy into a bigger man

        E                    A      B
