Break, wake, shake away, break, [D] break away, do what, do what I want [F] to do.
[E] [G]
[D]
[Gm] Time will [C] not wait for me.
[A] Time is my [Dm] destiny.
[G] Why change [C] the part of me that has to [Bb] be free?
[Gm] The love [C] that passed me [Db] by, I found [D] no reason [Am]
[G] why
But now [Em] each day is filled [F] with the [Bb] love
That very same [Gm] love
That passed [Bb] me by
And that is why
[G] I can break away from [Gm] that lonely life
And I can do [G] what I wanna do
[D] And break away from [Fm] that empty life
When [E] my world is new
[Gm]
When I lay [C] down on my bed
I [A] heard [Dm] voices in my [D] head
Telling me now, hey, [Em] it's only a [Eb] dream
[G] The more [C] I thought of it
[A] I had been [D] out of it
[G] And here's [C] the answer [Bm] I found inside
[Bb]
Found out it was [Gm] in my head
Found out it was my [Bb] head
Found out it was [G] in my head
And I [C] can break away to the [Dm] better life
Where the [Gm] shackles never hold [F] me down
I'm gonna make a way for each happy day
As [G] my life turns [D] around
