I have (Db)one va can cy and I want ed (Ab)you to know.

That (Bbm7)you’re the (Db)one

de signed for (Ab)me,

a (Bbm7)dis tant (Db)stran ger that (Gbmaj7)I will com (Eb)plete.

I (Bbm7)know you’re (Db)out there, we’re (Gbmaj7)meant to (Ab)be.

So (Bbm7)keep your (Db)head up

and make it to me,

(Ab)and make it to me.

So sick (Db)of this lone ly air it seems such (Ab)a waste of breath.

So much (Db)that I need to share, so I much (Ab)to get off my chest.
