[Intro]
C G Am7 F G C
[Verse 1]
C G Am
There’s a dream I have sometimes late at night
F C G
When a wishing star is my only light
C G Am
And it’s not very realistic, I know
F C G
To want to take the world on alone
F C G F C
So I could stay here, living life the same
F C G
But something out there calls my name
F C G E7 Am7
And maybe it’s wrong to want to leave this place
F G
But there’s dreams I have that I’ve just gotta chase
[Chorus]
F C G F C
So what if I just pack my bags one day
F C G F C
Kiss this town goodbye and find my way
F
Leave the past behind
C
Start a new life
G E7 Am7
Where no one knows my name
F G C
Yeah, somedays I just wanna run away
[Verse 2]
C G Am
In this dream I have I go somewhere new
F C G
Where the places don’t remind me of you
C G Am7
And the memories don’t mess with my head
F C G
‘Cause I’m busy making new ones instead
F C G F C
And I’m making plans that I want to do
F C G
Instead of things you wanted me to
F C G E7 Am7
So when I see that star, I don’t wish too hard
F G
I just find a pen and pick up my guitar
[Chorus]
F C G F C
So what if I just pack my bags one day
F C G F C
Kiss this town goodbye and find my way
F
Leave the past behind
C
Start a new life
G E7 Am7
Where no one knows my name
F G C
Yeah, somedays I just wanna run away
[Bridge]
F C G F
Looking at my future, I forget about my past
F C G Am7
Is there a way that I could somehow make that feeling last
F
Leave the heartbreak here
C
And face my fears
G E7 Am7
Make some better memories
F G
I know I’m fantasizing what it’s like to leave
[Chorus 2]
F C G F C
So what if I just pack my bags one day
F C G F C
Kiss this town goodbye and find my way
F
Leave the past behind
C
Start a new life
G E7 Am7
Where no one knows my name
F
Board a train somewhere
C
And cut my hair
G E7 Am7
No, nothing stays the same
F G
Yeah, sometimes I see that star up in its place
C
And I just wanna run away
[Outro]
G Am7 F G C
