Hop to Another SongI have GofAten Ddreamed,
of a Gfar Aoff Dplace.
Where a GherAo’s Bm7welcome,
would be Gmaj7waiting for Asusme. A
Where the Gcrowds Awill Dcheer,
when they Gsee Amy Bmface,
and a Gvoice F#keeps Bmsaying,
“DThis is Gwhere I’m meant to Asusbe.” A
I’ll be D9there someEmday,
DI can go the Adistance. A7
I will D9find my way, Em
Dif I can be Astrong. A7
I know D9every Gmile,
will be Bm7worth my Em7while.
When I Ggo Athe DdistAance,
BmI’ll Dbe Gmaj7right where G9I beDlong. A G
D A G
Down an GunAknown Droad,
to emGbrace Amy Dfate.
Though that Groad Amay Bm7wander,
it will Gmaj7lead me to Asusyou. A
And a GthouAsand Dyears,
would be Gworth Athe Bmwait.
It might Gtake F#a Bmlifetime,
Dbut someGhow I’ll see it Asusthrough. A
And I D9won’t look Emback,
DI can go the Adistance. A7
And I’ll D9stay on Emtrack,
no I Dwon’t accept deAfeat. A7
It’s an D9uphill Gslope,
but I Bm7won’t lose Em7hope.
Till I Ggo Athe DdisAtance,
Bmand Dmy Gmaj7journey Asusis A comDplete. A G
D A G
But to Flook beyond the Bbglory is the Chardest Apart
For a D9hero’s strength is Gmeasured by his F#heart

Like a D9shooting star, Em
DI will go the Adistance. G
I will D9search the Emworld,
DI will face its Aharms. G
D9I don’t care how Efar,
F#I can go the Bmdistance.
Till I Gfind Amy DheAro’s BmwelDcome
wGmaj7aiting Asusin yAour Darms.
Asus I will D9search the Gmaj7world,
I will Bm7face its Emharms.
Till I fGind Amy DheAro’s BmwelDcome.
Gwaiting in A7 your Garms
