I have often dreamed, of a far off place
Where a Great warm welcome will be waiting for me.
Where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face
And a voice keeps saying this is where I’m meant to be;

I will find my way, I can go the distance
I'll be there someday, if I can be strong
I know ev’ry mile, will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong
**See Monologue Note 1**

I am on my way, I will go the distance
I don't care how far, somehow I'll be strong
And a thousand years, would be worth the wait
It might take a lifetime, but somehow I’ll see it through.
**See "Monologue Note 2" at the bottom of Tab**

But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part
For a hero’s strength is measured by his heart

I will beat the odds, I will go the distance
I will face the world, fearless, proud, and strong
I will please the gods, I can go the distance
Til I find my hero's welcome right where I belong.
(Optional Tag Chord progression **For Theater purposes, the time used during this could
I will search the world, I will face it’s harms
Til I find my hero’s welcome, waiting in your arms
