Key: C
Introduction:
E9 B4
I've been staring at the edge of the water
C#m
'Long as I can remember
A
Never really knowing why
E9 B4
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
C#m
But I come back to the water
A
No matter how hard I try
C#m
Every turn I take
Every trail I track
B
Every path I make
Every road leads back
E/G#
To the place I know
Where I cannot go
Am6
Where I long to be
E9
See the line where the sky meets the sea?
B4
It calls me
C#m
No one knows
A
How far it goes
E9
If the wind in my sail on the sea
B4
Stays behind me
C#m
One day I'll know
Am6 E9
If I go there's just no telling how far I'll go
B4
I know everybody on this island
C#m
Seems so happy on this island
A
Everything is by design
E9 B4
I know everybody on this island
C#m
Has a role on this island
A
So maybe I could roll with mine
C#m
I can lead with pride
I can make us strong
B
I'll be satisfied if I play along
E/G#
But the voice inside sings a different song
Am6
What is wrong with me?
E9
See the light as it shines on the sea
B4
It's blinding
C#m
But no one knows
A
How deep it goes
E9
And it seems like it's calling out to me
B4
So come find me
C#m
And let me know
Am6
What's beyond that line,
Will I cross that line?
F/A
See the line where the sky meets the sea
C4
It calls me
Dm7
And no one knows
Bb9
How far it goes
F/A
If the wind in my sail on the sea
C4
Stays behind me

One day I'll know

How far I'll go
