[A] [F] Moon hangs [C] in the night, [B]
[Em] a spotlight [A] on the world
[B] [E]
[F] [C] Lighting the lands, [Bm] moving the seas
[Am]
And [F] tonight from where I [C] stand on this hill, [Bm] the [A] spotlight's on [E] me
[F] [C] I am young, [Bm] long ago, [G] I know not [A] a thing
Only that the [F] sky is blue, and sometimes [C] grey
Flowers grow [Em] but they need rain
[A] And when you're a kid you [F] play [C] games all day
And [Bm]
it [G] will be [Am] late

[G] And some fall [A] behind, [D] confusion [F] untold
[G] Life can [C] be so dramatic, [G] but it was real [A] at the time
Laughing [F] with friends, [D] [C] crying alone

We [F] leave school [B] to [C] face the world
That [Em] seems fun [G] for a while, [A] but you're tired of the same [F] faces
[C] And you dream [Em] of new places
[Am] It [F] was a breath of aspiration [C] when my sister [Em] said

We left [F] our town, we [C] traveled [Em] around
And I went to [A] find me
