C Em
[Chorus]
Am G I just want a Clife that seems a little Embetter than a dream
But I Amjust can't seem to get onG my feet
So I gotta let Cgo, gotta let Emgo, gotta let Amgo
I Ghope someday that you will
[Verse 1]
I Csit back and think about the life I've had
EmSo much to change but I can't go back
What Amhappened to that kid who used to play in the street?
I Gthink about that kid, he looked just like me
Had a Csmile, had a home, never grew old
EmWhen we grow up, do we have to grow cold?
AmSpent his whole life looking for salvation
GNever realized nobody could save him
So Call these words, for what they're worth
I Emknow it's hard, I know it hurts
And we Amlaugh at the past 'cause that's how we learn
GWelcome to the world, now let's watch it burn
[Chorus]
I just want a Clife that seems a little Embetter than a dream
But I Amjust can't seem to get onG my feet
So I gotta let Cgo, gotta let Emgo, gotta let Amgo
I Ghope someday that you will Cknow
You gotta Emlet go, gotta let Amgo
I Ghope someday you'll understand
[Verse 2]
CSometimes I sit and wish that I could see
A Emfuture picture of an older me
AmWould he be smiling and would he be happy?
GWould he say a thousand words while looking right at me?
CIs he different or the same old me?
Is he Emstill chasing after these same old dreams?
I Amknow that I'll never reach perfection
At Gleast he could point me in the right direction
CSome grow old and some grow cold
They'd Emsell their souls for a heart of gold
AmGod only knows where the hell would I be
If GI had the old me sitting beside me
[Chorus]
I just want a Clife that seems a little Embetter than a dream
But I Amjust can't seem to get onG my feet
So I gotta let Cgo, gotta let Emgo, gotta let Amgo
I Ghope someday that you will Cknow
You gotta let Emgo, gotta let Amgo
I Ghope someday you'll underCstand
