[Verse 1]
D F#m
I left home to prove to those who love me most
D F#m
That I had someone in me that they did not know
G F#m Em7
Who were they to say who I could not be
G F#m Em7 A7
I'd show them that my life was up to me
[Verse 2]
D F#m
I got in with the right crowd and I made some friends
D F#m
"Well what do you think of me?" They said "That depends"
G F#m Em7
But their love I sought and their love I'd win
G F#m Em7 A7
Went through hell and I'd do it all again
F* Bb*
And for what, lord?

[Verse 3]
D F#m
Well know they'd like to know who made me, where I'm from
D F#m
Say "How did you go unloved unnoticed for so long?
G F#m Em7
We're so glad to have you, please stay a while"
G F#m Em7 A7
Sweet delivery but their words beguile
[Verse 4]
D F#m
Cause up until this time they had not made a sound
G F#m Em7
And it turns out what I wanted only let me down
G F#m Em7
So I hold my head up and head back home
G F#m Em7 A7
To the people who knew me all along
F* Bb*
All along, lord
