Meant To Be

[Intro] C  Bb  Am  F

  C
When I grew up
      Am       F
I had big city dreams
                  C
I wondered if the Bible was wrong
                   Am            F
What the hell were they teaching me?
      C
I was lost in thought
                Am       F
And I could not hide it
                         C
But the sun - it kept on risin'
             Am     F
So, I played along

                     C
But now that you're gone and
                      Bb
And I write down this song
            Am                            F
I don't believe this is how it's meant to be
                      C
The church bells they ring
                          Bb
You can hear the mourners sing
           Am
They still believe

This is how it's meant to be

    C
The wheels touch down
          Am          F
All I can see is your face
           C
Amidst the noise of the lights
                     Am          F
The last thing on my mind was my faith
             C
And then the morning came
                    Am       F
And the sun started rising
                  C
But I was missing my friend
                   Am   F
So, how do I carry on?

                      C
Cause now that you're gone and
                      Bb
And I write down this song
            Am                            F
I don't believe this is how it's meant to be
                      C
The church bells they ring
                          Bb
You can hear the mourners sing
           Am
They still believe
                          F
This is how it's meant to be


Am            C                       F
Like a mother bird crying out for its young
               G                             F
I will sing it loud with all the might in my lungs

                  C
Cause now that you're gone and
                      Bb
And I write down this song
            Am                            F
I don't believe this is how it's meant to be
                      C
The church bells they ring
                          Bb
You can hear the mourners sing
           Am
They still believe
                          F
This is how it's meant to be

( C  Bb  Am  F )

                      C
Oh how it's meant to be, yeah
