[Verse 1]
G Bm
I left home to prove to those who love me most
G Bm
That I had someone in me that they did not know
C Bm Am7
Who were they to say who I could not be
C Bm Am7 D7
I'd show them that my life was up to me
[Verse 2]
G Bm
I got in with the right crowd and I made some friends
G Bm
"Well what do you think of me?" They said "That depends"
C Bm Am7
But their love I sought and their love I'd win
C Bm Am7 D7
Went through hell and I'd do it all again
F* Bb*
And for what, lord?

[Verse 3]
G Bm
Well know they'd like to know who made me, where I'm from
G Bm
Say "How did you go unloved unnoticed for so long?
C Bm Am7
We're so glad to have you, please stay a while"
C Bm Am7 D7
Sweet delivery but their words beguile
[Verse 4]
G Bm
Cause up until this time they had not made a sound
C Bm Am7
And it turns out what I wanted only let me down
C Bm Am7
So I hold my head up and head back home
C Bm Am7 D7
To the people who knew me all along
F* Bb*
All along, lord
