Em          D          C           G 
I've been a beggar and I've been a king 
Em          D          C           G 
I've been a loner and I've worn the ring 
Em          D          C           G 
Losing myself just to find me again 
Em                  D              C             G 
I'm a million miles smarter, but I ain't learnt a thing 
Em          D          C           G 
I've been a teacher and a student of hurt 
Em          D          C           G 
I've kept my word for whatever that's worth 
Em          D          C           G 
Never been last, but I've never been first 
Em                  D              C             G 
No I may not be the best, but I'm far from the worst 
 
No I may not be the best, but I'm far from the worst 
 
   C            G              D              Em 
Oh I've seen trouble more than any man should bear 
   C            G              D              Em 
But I've seen enough joy, I've had more than my share 
   C            G              D              Em 
And I'm still not done, I'm only halfway there 
   C            G              D              Em 
I'm a million miles ahead of where I'm from 
   C            G              D              Em 
But there's still another million miles to come 
 
C G D Em x2  
 
Em          D             C           G 
I keep on searching for the city of gold 
Em          D          C           G 
And I'm gonna follow this yellow brick road 
Em          D          C           G 
Thinking that maybe, it might lead me home 
Em                  D              C             G 
I'm a million miles farther and a long way from home 
Em                  D              C             G 
I know that there's a plan that goes way beyond mine 
Em          D             C           G 
Got to step back just to see the design 
Em                  D              C             G 
The mind fears the heart, but the heart doesn't mind 
Em                  D              C             G 
No I may not be perfect, but I'm loving this life 
 
No I may not be perfect, but I'm loving this life 
 
   C            G              D              Em 
Oh I've seen trouble more than any man should bear 
   C            G              D              Em 
But I've seen enough joy, I've had more than my share 
   C            G              D              Em 
And I'm still not done, I'm only halfway there 
   C            G              D              Em 
I'm a million miles ahead of where I'm from 
   C            G              D              Em 
But there's still another million miles to come 
 
C G D Em x8
