[Verse 1]
B
Open the door and run outside
      A               B
Your little boy heart alive
                  B
Into the morning light
A                 B
Into the deep and wide

B A B B

B
Dinosaur bones in the flowerbed
A               B
Rockets in the clouds
                  B
In a fight with a spider's web
F#m               E
Tunnels in the ground
E     F#m
Winding to China
A                   E
To the mist of the distant shore
    C#m        B       A
You better be home by suppertime
    G                       B    A
And back through the planet core


[Prechorus]
F#
Feel the beat of a distant thunder
E
It's the sound of an ancient song
F#
This is the Kingdom calling
E         A
Come now and tread the dawn


[Chorus]
B
So come to the father
E
Come to the deeper well
B
Drink of the water
     E             E
And come to live a tale to tell
B
Pages are turning now
E
This is abundant life
G#m            F#
The joy in the journey
    E               A
Is enough to make a grown man cry

[Verse 2]
B                                     E
Kings and castles in the neighborhood
A                    B
Swords on the forest floor
                     B
Dragons in the magic wood
       F#m                    E
Better saddle your battle horse
E       F#m
Fighting Goliath
A                  E
Better choose your weapons right
C#m          B           A
Five little stones and a faith on fire
     G                 B    A
In a little boy heart alive


[Prechorus]
F#
Feel the beat of a distant thunder
E
It's the sound of an ancient song
F#
This is the Kingdom calling
E         A              B
Come now and tread the dawn


[Chorus]
B
So come to the father
E
Come to the deeper well
B
Drink of the water
     E             E
And come to live a tale to tell
B
Pages are turning now
E
This is abundant life
G#m            F#
The joy in the journey
    E               A             B A E E
Is enough to make a grown man cry
              B A E E
Grown man cry


[Bridge]
E
Met a kid at the railroad track

Had a stick and a nylon sack
A
I ran to the house to pack
            D
I wanted to follow

[Prechorus]
F#
Take a ride on the mighty lion
E
Take a hold of the golden mane
F#
This is the love of Jesus
E              A
So good but He is not tame, No


[Chorus]
B
So come to the father
E
Come to the deeper well
B
Drink of the water
     E             E
And come to live a tale to tell
B
Pages are turning now
E
This is abundant life
G#m            F#
The joy in the journey
    E               A             B E E
Is enough to make a grown man cry
                      A          B A
Oh, with a little boy heart alive


[Outro]
B                  E          A
Ever the road goes on and on
B                  A
Ever the road goes on and on and on
