The Lost Boy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I left my [G]home still as a child
I walked a thousand sorry miles
To wait for my fa[C]ther, to gather up his to[G]ols
He said my boy you've got to run
Don't wait for me, don't wait for mum
We'll come [C]get you,
when it's safe for us to [G]move

[Pre-chorus 1]
So I [C]waited many years
Held back the [Em]pain behind my tears
For my [C]father, to come find me like [G]he said
And in that ye [C]time I was alone
So many [Em]years without my home
I made [C]brothers of a different kind in[G]stead

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][C][G]

[Verse 2]
And at the [G]time I didn't know
Just how hard the wind could blow
Towards di[C]saster,
and the things that I would [G]see
I never found my father,
I never found my mother
Even would I [C]know in my lifetime I will [G]be

[Pre-chorus 2]
A [C]hero into the masses
To those [Em]born without chances
There's a [C]freedom that everyone de[G]serves
I know there's [C]greed and there's corruption
I've seen [Em]death and mass destruction
But I'm telling [C]you, and I hope that I'm he[G]ard

[Chorus 1]
I will [G]not be commanded
I will [C]not be controlled
And I will [Em]not let my future go [C]on
Without the help of my [G]soul
[Repeat]
