^EmYou know me we^Cll, but I know I don’t belon^Gg here. ^D ^EmI've tried through t^Cime just to make my ^Gsong clear. ^D ^EmBut who am ^CI without my reput^Gation? ^D ^EmCan I stand ^Cup to my own expect^Gations? ^D

[Pre-Chorus]

^EmIn a different world, ^Cin a different time, I k^Gnew my purpose, I f^Delt so alive, ^EmNow I start once more, ^CI have been reborn. A ^Gflake in a flurry, a ^Ddrop in a storm.

[Chorus]

I’ve ^Emlost it all what ^Clong ago was ^Gmine. ^D The ^Emmusic speaks to me but what it’s ^Csaying I can’t ^Gdecide. ^D Putting ^Am7melody to rh^Cyme. Doesn’t make a ^Am7difference down the lin^Ce. It’s just a matter of t^Emime. ^C ^G ^D

[Verse 2]

^EmMy friends have go^Cne in the opposite d^Girection. ^D ^EmTry as I ^Cmight, I avoid dete^Gction. ^D ^EmIs my choice ri^Cght, or just a flight of fa^Gncy? ^D ^EmI know my p^Cast, it’s the future that I c^Gan’t see. ^D

[Pre-Chorus]

^EmIn a different world, ^Cin a different place. I had A^Gmerica’s third most recognizable f^Dace. And then ^Emsuddenly, out of ^Chistory, I’m one ^Gin seven-billion and it ^Dterrifies me.

[Chorus]

I’ve ^Emlost it all what ^Clong ago was ^Gmine. ^D The ^Emmusic speaks to me but what it’s ^Csaying I can’t deci^Gde. ^D And I’m ^Am7looking for my s^Cign. And I’m ^Am7hoping I will fi^Cnd it Em C G D x2 In a matter of time.

^EmAnd if I move on, and if ^CI grow old Will I ^Gend up penniless, ^Dalone in the cold? Or will I f^Emind my path, will I ^Cfind my spark To il^Gluminate me and get me out of the dark?

[Chorus]

^Em I’ve los^Ct it all what ^Glong ago was ^Dmine. The m^Emusic speaks to me but what it’s ^Csaying I can’t decide^G. ^D By the ^Am7nickel, by the d^Cime. It’s a m^Am7ountain I can c^Climb. It’s t^Am7here for me to f^Cind, It’s just a matter of t^Gime.
