Intro: C C F C
C C G C
Verse 1:
C F C
I used to be an astronaut when I was just a boy
C F G
I fell in love with floating through the stars
C F C
My mother told me, "son, just aim your arrow at the moon,
F G C
And always follow it when things get hard"
Verse 2:
C F C
I used to ride the box cars when the circus came to town
C F G
And I'd tame a couple lions just for fun
C F C
And then a fella told me, "son, it's good to do what you enjoy,
F G C
As long as you just enjoy doing what you love"
CHORUS:
F C G C
Cause it's a long road back to that place I know
F C G
It's the only place that I can call my home
F C G C
So if I pick up all the pieces I leave before I go
F G C
Then the shorter I will wander down this road
VERSE 3:
C F C
I used to be an outlaw robbin' banks in the Old West

And if you think it makes you happy, then you're wrong"
CHORUS:
F C G C
Cause it's a long road back to that place I know

VERSE 4: (Acapella, but you can play the chords if you like)
The truth is I'm a boy just tryin' to become a man

But I'm thankful for the hand this life has dealt in front of me
And what happens next, well it is what it is
