Tuning:
Intro
[Dm] [Am]
[Dm] [A#] [C]
The sum [F]of all my fears like dread are from de[Am]mons yet to come
All the [A#]things I should've mentioned wave goo[Dm]dbye and "we'll s[C]ee you soon"
It's the[F] words I've never written that say mor[Am]e about myself
Where em[A#]pty is the promise lies a [Dm]pocket full of doubt[C]
..................................................
Chorus:
So may t[F]he road I've yet to ta[Dm]ke
Leave a [F]smile across my fa[Dm]ce
'Till th[F]e laughter sheds the [C]darkness far b[Am]ehind
For I still belo[F]ng in the c[A#]radle [C]of humankind[Dm]
..................................................
[Am]
[Dm] [A#] [C]
Though m[F]y time may be less traveled than t[Am]hose that came before
We're al[A#]l exiles here in madness kicking d[Dm]own each other's d[C]oor
Unfo[F]rgiven is the lesson we pour [Am]upon ourselves
When a h[A#]elping hand is needed, slap[Dm] in the face is what we[C] get
But I will[F] fight for this [Dm]right and each mo[F]ment of it's [Dm]life
'Till I wi[F]tness all the d[C]ifferences yet to [Am]heal
..................................................
Chorus:
So may t[F]he road I've yet to ta[Dm]ke
Leave a [F]smile across my fa[Dm]ce
'Till th[F]e laughter sheds the [C]darkness far b[Am]ehind
For I still belo[F]ng in the c[A#]radle [C]of humankind[Dm]
..................................................
[Am]
[Dm] [A#] [C]
Sometimes [F]drink till I am empty, grab an[Am]other from the shelf
Though I'm [A#]stuck in conversation, it's with m[Dm]yself and no one el[C]se
Never li[F]sten to much reason till I h[Am]ear it's a last call
When I n[A#]otice that my ghost is still da[Dm]ncing on his [C]own
..................................................
Chorus:
So may t[F]he road I've yet to ta[Dm]ke
Leave a [F]smile across my fa[Dm]ce
'Till th[F]e laughter sheds the [C]darkness far b[Am]ehind
For I still belo[F]ng in the cradle[A#] of humankind
..................................................
Wherever you[C] go
(The sun sets to rise
On a day that you find
You Struggle to be
But you're already there)
Wherever you [F]go
Wherever yo[C]u go
(A passionless life
Has no words to write
It's a body that's broken
And breathless of life)
Oh, wherever yo[F]u go
There'll always[A#] be a roof and a dream above our [F]head
As long as I'm [C]breathing,[A#] then forever I'll b[F]e
Ah, I will[F] fight for this [Dm]right and each mo[F]ment of it's [Dm]life
'Till I wi[F]tness all the d[C]ifferences yet to [Am]heal
..................................................
Chorus:
So may t[F]he road we've yet to t[Dm]ake
Leave a [F]smile across our f[Dm]ace
'Till th[F]e laughter sheds the [C]darkness far b[Am]ehind
We still belong [F]in the crad[A#]le of [C]humankind[Dm]
..................................................
[Am]
[Dm] [A#] [C] [F]
