The Lost Boy - Greg Holden
G
I left my home still as a child
G
I walked a thousand sorry miles
C/G G
To wait for my father to gather up his truth
G
He said my boy you've got to run
G
Don't wait for me don't wait for mum
C/G G
We'll come get you when it's safe for us to move
C/G
So I waited many years
Em
held back the pain behind my tears
C/G G
For my father to come find me like he said
C/G
And in that time I was alone
Em
so many years without my home
C/G G
I made brothers of a different kind instead
G C/G G
G
And in the time I didn't know
G
just how hard the wind could blow
C/G G
Towards disaster and the things that I would see
G
I never found my father
G
I never found my mother
C/G G
Even would I know in my lifetime I will be
C/G
A hero into the masses
Em
to those born without chances
C/G G
There's a freedom that everyone deserves
C/G
I know there's greed and there's corruption
Em
I've seen death and mass destruction
C/G G
But I'm telling you and I hope that I'm heard
G
And I will not be commanded
C/G
And I will not be controlled
Em C/G
And I will not let my future go on
G
without the help of my soul
G
And I will not be commanded
C/G
And I will not be controlled
Em C/G
And I will not let my future go on
G
without the help of my soul
G
And I will not be commanded
C/G
And I will not be controlled
Em C/G
And I will not let my future go on
G
without the help of my soul
G
I will not be commanded
C/G
I will not be controlled
Em C/G
And I will not let my future go on
G
without the help of my soul
