(Hey yeah, hey yeah-ah-ah)
verse 1
A                                              Em7              G  
I took it all, all on my back
I picked it up on my shoulders
A                                                 Em7                         G  
Thought it was all, all I could have
                                                                        Em7  
And it was better, it was better than nothing
A                                                            Em7                 G  
Now I know, I know that isn't true
What have I got to show
Em7  
After seeing it through
A                                                      Em7            G    G/F#  
Now I know, I know a few things
Pre-Chorus
                             Em7      A  
And I can feel it
  Em7                 A  
Coming towards me
                                G7+                                                                    D      D72    D  
It took me so long to get here but here I am
(It took me so long I can't believe it)
                                G7+                                                                    D      D72    D  
It took me so long to get here but here I am
(It took me so long but here I am)
G7+  
Everything I tried and
                                                                        D      D72    D  
All the things I dreamed of
(It took me so long I can't believe it)
                          G7+                                                                            D      D72    D  
It took me so long to get here but here I am
verse 2
A                                                            Em7      G  
If I could do it, do it all again
                                                                                                        A  
I can't safely say I wouldn't change it
                                                                          Em7              G  
There were things left me feeling ashamed
A                                                                      Em7      G  
Like how I didn't stand up for myself
                                          Em7                                 A  
I didn't even try to see the truth
                                                                     Em7                    G      G/F#  
But the truth led to you calling my name
Pre-Chorus
                        Em7                              A  
And it shot like an arrow
Em7                 A  
Into my heart
                                G7+                                                                    D      D72    D  
It took me so long to get here but here I am
(It took me so long I can't believe it)
                                G7+                                                                    D      D72    D  
It took me so long to get here but here I am

F#              A                              C#m  
All my systems were failing
                                                     B      B4    B                                      A  
And it didn't seem fair, no it didn't seem fair
                                  F#  
But it made way
             A                                 C#m  
For something different
