            Em           F#m
There are those who can live
           G                 Asus4  A      
With the things they dont believe in
          Em              D/F#
They are giving up their lives
     G                 G/A              C/G
For something that is less than it can be

           Em           F#m
Some have longed for a home
       G            Asus4 A
In a place of inspiration
           Em                   D/F#
Some will fill the emptiness inside
    G                     G/A               C/G           A7sus4 A7
By giving it all to the things that they believe, they believe

 A                 D
Maybe its just a dream in me
 Bm                 F#m
Maybe its just my style
 G                   A                D Dsus4 D5
Maybe its just the freedom that I've found
 A                  D
Given the possibility
    Bm                G
Of living up to the dream in me
      Em               A                    D Dsus4 D5  D Dsus2 A/D  D Dsus4 G/D  D Dsus2 Asus2/D
You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground

         Em        F#m
I will stand on my own
        G                  Asus4 A
I will live up to this vision
         Em             D/F#
I will trust in what I feel
     G                 G/A              C/G             A7sus4 A7
And follow my heart until it brings me home, brings me home

 A                 D
Maybe its just a dream in me
 Bm                 F#m
Maybe its just my style

Given the possibility

Of living up to the dream in me

You know that I'll be reaching for higher ground

 Bb                  F
Keep me through the night

Lead me to the light
 G7                    D5 D
Teach me the magic of wonder
 Bm                     E E7 A7sus4 A7
Give me the spirit to fly

Of living up to the dream in me
