Originally in E, I play in E capo 2
| E | Bsus4 |
| I’ve been staring at the edge of the wat | er |
| C#m | Asus2 | |
| ‘Long as I can re | member, never really knowing w | hy |
| E | Bsus4 |
| I wish I could be the perfect d | aughter |
| C#m | Asus2 | |
| But I come back to the | water, no matter how hard I tr | y |
| C#m | |
| Every t | urn I take, every trail I track |
| B/D# | |
| Every p | ath I make, every road leads back |
| E | |
| To the p | lace I know, where I cannot go |
Vox in 1 5 3 of the minor chord on “long to be”
| Am | |
| Where I lo | ng to be |
| E | Bsus4 | |
| See the l | ine where the sky meets the sea, it | calls me |
| C#m7 | Asus2 | |
| And no one k | nows, how far it g | oes |
| E | Bsus4 | |
| If the wi | nd in my sail on the sea stays beh | ind me |
| C#m7 | Am | E | |
| One day I’ll | know, if I | go there’s just no telling how far I’ll | go |
No pause here, right into the next verse
| E | F#m |
| I know, everybody on this i | sland seems so happy |
| C#m | Asus2 | |
| On this isl | and, everything is by de | sign |
| E | F#m | C#m |
| I know, everybody on this i | sland has a role on this isl | and |
| Asus2 | |
| So maybe I can roll with m | ine |
| C#m | |
| I can l | ead with pride, I can make us strong |
| B/D# | |
| I’ll be s | atisfied if I play along |
| E | |
| But the v | oice inside sings a different song |
| Am | |
| What is w | rong with me? |
| E | Bsus4 | |
| See the l | ight as it shines on the sea, it’s b | linding |
| C#m7 | Asus2 | |
| But no one kn | ows, how deep it g | oes |
| E | Bsus4 | |
| And it s | eems like it’s calling out to me, so come f | ind me |
I can’t decide whether it’s really a iv or a IV this time, so calling it a IVsus2
| C#m | Asus2 | |
| And let me k | now, what’s be | yond that line, will I cross that line? |
| F | Csus4 | |
| See the l | ine where the sky meets the sea? It ca | lls me |
| Dm7 | Bbsus2 | |
| And no one k | nows, how far it g | oes |
| F | Csus4 | |
| If the w | ind in my sail on the sea stays be | hind me |
| Dm | Ab | Fm | Dm7b5 | C | |
| One day I’ll k | now, how far I’ll | go |
