F#m          E          D           A
I've been a beggar and I've been a king
F#m          E          D            A
I've been a loner and I've worn the ring
F#m       E            D        A
Losing myself just to find me again
      F#m             E             D
I'm a million miles smarter, but I ain't
           A
learnt a thing

I've been a teacher and a student of hurt
I've kept my word for whatever that's worth
Never been last, but I've never been first
Oh I may not be the best, but
I'm far from the worst
Oh I may not be the best, but
I'm far from the worst

Chorus:
   D           A               E              F#m
Oh I've seen trouble more than any man should bear
   D            A               E
But I've seen enough joy, I've had more than
    F#m
my share
   D               A              C#7     F#m
And I'm still not done, I'm only halfway there
       D       A               E        F#m
I'm a million miles ahead of where I'm from
              D     A              E        F#m
But there's still another million miles to come

I keep on searching for the city of gold
And I'm gonna follow this yellow brick road
Thinking that maybe, it might lead me home
I'm a million miles farther and
a long way from home
I know that there's a plan
that goes way beyond mine
Got to step back just to see the design
The mind fears the heart, but the heart doesn't mind
Oh I may not be perfect, but I'm loving this life
Oh I may not be perfect, but I'm loving this life

Chorus
