Verse
Em
You've given me a home to sleep tonight
C
You've given my hope to stay alive
Em
I scream at the top of my lungs
C
Just to get my way
Em
And maybe someday I'll finish school
C
And be all the things you want me to
Em
But for now I will travel the world
C
and see if it works
Prechorus:
Am Bm C
I can fight for myself but you need to know
Chorus:
G Em
Baby, please
C
don't run away from me
I know that times are hard
Am Bm C
And if you leave now, life will still go on
G Em
And I'll chase my dreams
C
But you will never see
That's why this song was made
Am Bm C
Cause you need to know that I'm still the boy you loved
Verse 2
Em
You've given me strength to be a man
C
Even when I could hardly stand
Em
And now I feel that you need me
C
to do the same for you
Em
Maybe some day I'll straighten up
C
But college was never quite enough
Em C
So for now I will travel the world and make it work
Prechorus:
Am Bm C
I can live on my own but you need to know
Chorus:
G Em
Baby, please
C
don't run away from me
I know that times are hard
Am Bm C
And if you leave now, life will still go on
G Em
And I'll chase my dreams
C
But you will never see
That's why this song was made
Am Bm C
Cause you need to know that I'm still the boy you loved
