Book

G C Em C

[Verse 1]
G
 When I was younger I would run away
C
 And read a book I’d treasure every 
day
Em
 My hero jumped right off the page
C
 You set me outta my cage

G
 You shined a light on all that I 
could do
C
 Gentle but stronger, laughing, 
crying too
Em      D
 Never afraid to show yourself
C
 You brought me outta my shell

[Pre-Chorus]
Am             Bm
 What happened inside my soul?
 Em          F#m             G
 When did I start to give it up?
Am                   Bm
 Now that I’m older I feel a hole
 C                           D
 I’m goin’ back I wanna open up

[Chorus]
         C           D        G  
I open a book and my story to see
     Em
 you again
  C                D         Am
I know that you’re there for me
         Bm  C             D     
Remember the time when you gave 
      G           Em
me the strength to begin
  C             D       G
I know you’re a part of me

[Post-Chorus]
        C
 Take a step at a time
          Bm    Em
 ‘Cause I gotta believe
 C         D        G
 I’m gonna make the climb
        C        D
 When I gotta be strong
       G          Em
 And I have to be brave

 I know you’re coming along
C              D      G

[Verse 2]
G
 When people grow up they stop 
having fun
C
 Instead they live by logic and 
reason
Em
 Emotions taking second place
C
 God get me outta this race

G
 Life in a noisy city takes a toll
C
 No longer laughing from my heart at
 all
Em        D
 I wonder if I’ll be OK
C
 I don’t fit in the charade

[Pre-Chorus]
Am             Bm

[Bridge]
C                            D
 Reading your story’s like a time 
machine
G                       Em       
 I hope the pages never disappear
       C
 in my heart
              D          G
 And you live forever in me

[Chorus]
         C           D        G
