Tom: D
D
I was raised in Oregon by the mountains and the streams
Raised by the rugged, the wild and the free
G D A
And I'm a dreamer of better days to come
[Verse 2]
D
I'd be lying if I said said it wasn't a fight
Spent many evenings crying through the night
G D
And we're all searching how to get a life right
[Chorus]
Em D
Oh, you'll never know where life can go
A C
If you don't let down your fear
Em D
Oh you'll never find what you're searching for
A D
Until you learn how, how to set it free
[Verse 3]
D
My parents left me when I was really young
They left me to deal with the setting of the sun
G D A
But I held my head high, I said by goodbyes and moved on
[Verse 4]
D
My grandparents picked up the pieces where they fell
They told me that everyone's got a story to tell
G D
And we're all searching for somewhere to belong
[Chorus]
Em D
Oh, you'll never know where life can go
A C
If you don't let down your fear
Em D
Oh you'll never find what you're searching for
A D
Until you learn how, how to set it free
[Bridge]
Em C D
Well I once heard a wise man say
Em C D
That if you want love you gotta give it away
Em C D
'Cause it's a hard life, when it comes, we'll sacrifice
Em G Bm A
And those of you who lose it, find life
D
Gotta set it free
[Outro]
D
I was raised in Oregon by the mountains and the streams
Raised by the rugged, the wild and the free
G D
And I'm a dreamer of better days to come
