F
Why does it take so long for me
    Dm                      Am
To know who I want to be, yeah
     C
Am I missing something here?
             F
I've been an orphan down and out
      Dm                            Am
And a king with a calloused heart, yeah
    C
But who am I supposed to be

(Chorus)
                   F
I've carried this cross
                   Dm
I've been lost and lonely
                   Am
I had to walk this world to see
        C
That you are where I want to be
                    F
And why does it take so long (take so long)
                    Dm
And why does it take so long (take so long)
   Gm          C
To find my way home

(F Dm Am  C)

F
Why can't I just let it go
                 Dm                     Am
I've been fighting with my own soul, yeah
       C
It's a fight I'm losing
F
But something's gonna turn around
           Dm                             Am
I'm on the ropes but don't count me out yet
                  C
No don't count me out


(Chorus)


Dm                  F
Am I looking for a sign
                Gm                   Am
Looking for something written in the sky
           Dm
To show me how
                    F               Gm    Am
To get what's in my heart to my head now
Dm                  Bb9
Am I looking for a sign
                Gm                   Am
Looking for something written in the sky
           Dm
To show me how
                    Bb9               Gm    Am
To get what's in my heart to my head now


                  Dm
I've carried this cross

I've been lost and lonely
                   Am
I had to walk this world to see
        C
That you are where I want to be

                F
You carried the cross
                Dm
For the lost and lonely
                          Am
You had to walk this world so I could see
        C
That you are where I want to be

F
Why did it take so long? (You were here all along)
Dm
Why did it take so long? (Even when I was wrong)
   Gm              C
To find my way home  (x2) F
