[Verse 1]
Bd C Dm
how long i have wanted
this dream to come true
and as it approaches
i can't believe i'm through
[Pre-Chorus]
F C
i've tried,
Dm
oh, how i've tried
Bd F
for a life, yes a life
C Dm
i'm on to
[Chorus]
F C
oh it's the price we gotta pay
F C
and all the games we gotta play
F C Dm
makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on
F C
'cause it's a game we gotta lose,
F C
though it's a life we gotta choose
F C Dm
and the price is our own life until it's gone
[Verse 2]
Bd C Dm
time seems to have frozen,
but the mind can be fooled
as the days pass i discover
destiny just can't be ruled
F C
hard times,
[Pre-Chorus]
C Dm
oh hard times,
Bd F
for the prize, yes the prize,
C Dm
i'm on to
[Chorus] (x2)
F C
oh it's the price we gotta pay
F C
and all the games we gotta play
F C Dm
makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on
F C
'cause it's a game we gotta lose,
F C
though it's a life we gotta choose
F C Dm
and the price is our own life until it's gone
