[Verse 1]
F Am
I left home to prove to those who love me most
F Am
That I had someone in me that they did not know
A# Am Gm7
Who were they to say who I could not be
A# Am Gm7 C7
I'd show them that my life was up to me
[Verse 2]
F Am
I got in with the right crowd and I made some friends
F Am
"Well what do you think of me?" They said "That depends"
A# Am Gm7
But their love I sought and their love I'd win
A# Am Gm7 C7
Went through hell and I'd do it all again
F* Bb*
And for what, lord?
[Interlude]
Dm Dm/A# Dm G7 F* Bb*

[Verse 3]
F Am
Well know they'd like to know who made me, where I'm from
F Am
Say "How did you go unloved unnoticed for so long?
A# Am Gm7
We're so glad to have you, please stay a while"
A# Am Gm7 C7
Sweet delivery but their words beguile
[Verse 4]
F Am
Cause up until this time they had not made a sound
A# Am Gm7
And it turns out what I wanted only let me down
A# Am Gm7
So I hold my head up and head back home
A# Am Gm7 C7
To the people who knew me all along
F* Bb*
All along, lord
