Intro: C F C F (2x) 



C           F                C       F 
Some birds fly away to the horizons warmer days, 

     C               F                    C    F 
Summer feels better than the blistering cold 


C            F               C             F 
I long for more than this doing a job just so I live 

   C              F               C        F 
I know my soul's vision can't be changed 



Am                C              F 
Someday soon I'll travel to find me 

Am              C                 F        
And this abyss ain't as dark as I feared 



C              F                  Am 
So I'm gonna pack my things and go 

             G                C 
Travel the world before I'm old

I want to climb up mountains 

C          F 
Drink from nature's fountains 

C               F                C 
Who knows what I'll do on my way 


C     F 


C               F 
I want to feel lost and stranded 

C              F  
Find love in a different language 

C              F                 C 
Who knows who I'll meet on my way

Now I'm sure this is what I need 

Am                C              D7 
Space to roam and be completely free

I was once told whilst growing up 

                 C         B            Am 
If you want to leave then go while you can 

Am             Am/F               G 
Before you get stuck, before you become 

C        B                     D7 
Another cog in the working machine 


Well that's not me so...
