              Intro 
 
Verse 1:
F#                     F#  G  G#m 
  If I could breathe underwater 
   G#m               G#m   Am  A#m 
Every fish would walk on land 
        A#m    Am       G#m  G#m  C# 
If I could fly   in the sky baby 
  C#          C#  F# 
Then wings would be on me 
   F#            F#  G  G#m 
If words could move mountains 
     G#m                     G#m   Am  A#m 
If I could swim the ocean without drownin' 
         A#m  Am  G#m        G#m  C# 
If there was pain without hurtin' 
C#                 C# 
Then the impossible has been found

There's more than we know, more than we know 
  
( C#  F# ) 
 
Verse 2: 
                         F# 
Yeah, yeah, if I could moonwalk on the moon 
F#    G        G#m 
I would glide to you baby 
     G#m 
I'd go to war like a platoon 
   G#m           Am         A#m 
I'd be right there on the front lines 
 A#m  Am    G#m                  G#m  C# 
No   broken promises in the Promised Land 
    C#                   C# 
Let's let freedom set us free again

 Bridge: 
Uh, yeah, uh 
B           A#m        G#m 
 See if we just stayed on the ground 
       G#m        A#m 
Then we would never see the stars 
         A#m          B 
And if you're too afraid to walk in faith 
  C# 
Then you will never know your heart 
B      B    A#m        G#m 
And if we just stayed on the corner 
       G#m        A#m 
Then we would never see the world 
    A#m             A#m 
'Cause baby there's no fate that you can't create
