GuitarPianoUkulele

Intro 1
Dm 
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down
I've always been a dreamer, a soul seeker
I knew my life was meant
for something deeper
A7 
You saw me,
there's beauty all along the way
Dm 
I've been walking till my feet hurt,
holes in my t-shirt
Caught me at the Goodwill
'cause you know it's cheaper
A7 
Only got a few dollars to my name

Pre-chorus 1

No I, I, I, I'm never gonna stop believing

Yeah I, I, I, I'mma let 'em know till the day I die

Dm 
How many times
they need to hear me say it?
I'm a freak for you,
I'm here to make you famous
Dm7 
Just here to tear  it apart,
here to light the dark
Dm6 
I'm debt free  like a bird
'cause you paid the cost
Dm 
So every time I get a mic
in the palm of my hand
Am 
I'mma tear the place down
like it's my last stand
Gm 
But for you is my hill worth dying on, man
Am 
The only place that I've ever belonged
