Well why do I feel so weighed down by it?
Dm
If I could show them everything I've seen
F
Open their eyes to all the lies then
G C
Would they change their minds like I did?
But when I speak they tell me "Sit down"
C Dm
But how can I when I've already started runnin'
F Am
Oh, this is where we've been, but it's not where we belong
F C Dm Gsus4 G
And I may be young, but I know I'm not wrong
[Chorus]
Am F C
So I look up at the stars to guide me
Am F C
And throw caution to every warning sign
Am F C
If knowing what it could be is what drives me
Am F G
Then let me be the first to stand in line
C G Am
So I make this wish
C G Am
To have something more for us than this
C G Am G
So I make this wish
F G
To have something more for us than this
[Post-Chorus]
Am F C
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
Am F C
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, ah, ah
Am F C Am F G
More than this, oh, ah, ah, ah
[Verse 2]
C
I never knew I needed room to grow
C Dm
Yeah, I did what I was told when someone told me "No!"
Now I got all of this freedom in my bones
F G
But I still got the lid on, so it doesn't overflow
[Bridge]
Am
'Cause I've got reservations and hesitations
F
On where I should even begin
C
I'm past dipping my toes in, but I'm not
G
No, I'm not past diving in
Am
If I can just be pointed in any given direction
F
On where to go and what to do
C
My legs are shaking but my head's held high
G
The way you always taught me to
[Chorus]
Am F C
So I look up at the stars to guide me
Am F C
And throw caution to every warning sign
Am F C
I'm sure there will be challenges that find me
Am F G
But I can take them on one at a time
C G Am
So I make this wish
C G Am
To have something more for us than this
C G Am G
So I make this wish
F G
To have something more for us than this
[Post-Chorus]
Am F C Am F
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah (So I make this wish)
C Am F
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, ah, ah (To have something more)
C Am F G
More than this, oh, ah, ah, ah

C G Am G
So I make this wish
F G Am F C
To have something more for us than this
