_ _ _ _ _ _ Once upon a time, before the lakes and rivers were polluted, before the animals were poached
to extinction, and before man had destroyed the Earth's atmosphere, there was a great ship.
[G#m] _
_ _ This vessel was to [G#] venture into new waters [G#m] to find new resources to make life easier
and more [F#m] enjoyable.
_ _ _ [F#] _ It was a simple [F#m] mission for the crew, and we were excited to be a part of this union. _
[C#] We pledged our allegiance to the captain and vowed to be there [C#m] no matter what, in sickness,
health, or [G#m] impossible death.
_ _ _ [G#] _ Time passed by, there was no new land to be found, and [F#m] days grew shorter, and the night
grew [B] longer and colder, as the crew became more and more skeptical about the captain. _ _ _
[C#m] Our feeling of passion and humility had extremely played a role in navigating the river.
[G#] Off _ _ _ _ [G#] the line, _ I was honest, I never promised [E] to have _ _ anything. _
_ _ Brotherhood [F#m] to stand for something, [C#m] _ _ and everyone to take the lead.
_ _ Follow [B] your dreams, _ _ [F#] if you [E] don't try, you [F#] fail. _ _

I was honest, I [G#m] never _ [E] promised to have _ _ [D#m] anything. _

_ _ _ Follow [G#m] your _ _ [G#] dreams, if you don't try, you fail. _ _ _

[B] _ _ _ His dream is now _
[F#] _ _ _ a shipwreck in the [G#] sand.
_ They gave up, _ _ _ _ _ but it made all their _
[E] demands.
_ The storm consumes, [F#] _ _ deep in seven souls.
[G#m] _ He [G#] died in vain, _ _ _ his lucky star. _ _
[E] _ _ He's just a kid, you know.
[F#] _ _ _ A cattle far [G#] in the _ _ desert. _ _ _
_ He's _ not afraid, [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ he's just a little [G#] bit afraid.
