I found my self to day.

Oh, I (C)found my self and (C)ran a way.

shin ing all the time.

But some thing pulled me back,

a voice of (C)rea son I for (C)got I had.

(A7)All I know is, (Bb)you’re not here to say

what you (C)al ways used to say,

but it’s (Bb)writ ten in the sky to night.

So I (F)won’t give up,

no, I (C)won’t break down;

(Dm7)soon er than it (Fmaj7)seems, life (F)turns a round.

And I (F)will be strong, e ven if it (C)all goes wrong.

When I’m (Dm7)stand ing in the dark, I’ll still be lieve

(Bbsus2)some one’s watch ing o ver me.

I’ve seen that ray of light

and it’s (C)shin ing on my (C)des

ti ny,

And I won’t be a fraid

(A7)All I know is, (Bb)yes ter day is gone

and right (C)al now I be long

but it’s (Bb)to this mo ment, to

my dreams.

So I (F)won’t give up,

no, I (C)won’t break down;

And I (F)will be strong,

e ven if it (C)all goes wrong.

When I’m (Dm7)stand ing in the dark, I’ll still be lieve
