[Verse I]
         C             D         Em
Inside a song, there's a hero to discover
Bm                 C
 There's no way we can try off without struggle
C
 I'm just like you
      D                 Em
why you trying to bring me down
Bm
 I'm just like you
        C
Help me turn this thing around

[Pre-chorus]
C
 I dream at night
D    Em           Bm
 Off of better day
         C
You and I, in a better place
C                   D           Em           Bm
 Don't know how but I know that I'll reach it

Don't know when but I know that we're leaving
