Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm][Em][Dm][Em]
[Dm][Em][Dm][Em][Em]

[Verse 1]
Inside my [Dm]head there lives a dream
that I [Em]want to see in the sun
Behind my [Dm]eyes there lives a me
that I've been [Em]hiding for much too long
Cause I've [Dm]been, too afraid to let it show
Cause I'm [Em]scared of the judgement
that may follow
[Dm]Always putting off my living
for to[Em]morrow

[Pre-chorus 1]
It's time to step out [F#m]on faith,
I've gotta show [Em]my face
It's been il[Dm]lusive for so long,
but [Em]freedom is mine today
I've gotta step out [F#m]on faith,
it's time to show [Em]my face
Procrasti[Dm]nation had me down but
[Em]look what I have found

[Chorus 1]
I [F#m]found strength, courage
and wis[Em]dom
And it's been inside [F#m]of me all alon[Em]g
[F#m]Strength, courage and wisdom[Em]
Inside of me
[Dm][Em][Dm][Em]

[Verse 2]
Behind my [Dm]pride there lives a me,
that [Em]knows humility
Inside my [Dm]voice there is a soul
and in my [Em]soul there is a voice
But I've been too afraid to make a choice
Cause I'm scared of the things
that I might be missing
[Dm]Running too fast to stop to list[Em]en

[Pre-chorus 2]
It's time to step out [F#m]on faith,
I've gotta show [Em]my face
It's been il[Dm]lusive for so long,
but [Em]freedom is mine today
I've gotta step out [F#m]on faith,
it's time to show [Em]my face
Procrasti[Dm]nation had me down but
[Em]look what I have found

[Chorus 2]
I [F#m]found strength, courage
and wis[Em]dom
And it's been inside [F#m]of me all alon[Em]g
[F#m]Strength, courage and wisdom[Em]
Inside of me
[Dm][Em][Dm][Em]

[Bridge 1]
[D]I close my eyes and I
[E]think of all the thi[Am]ngs
that I want to [E]see
'Cause I [D]know, now that I've opened up
my [E]heart I know that
[Am]Anything I want [E]can [D]be,
(so [Dm]let it be) so [Em]let it be
(So [Dm]let it be) so [Em]let it be
(So [Dm]let it be) so [Em]let it be
(So [Dm]let it be) so [Em]let it be

[Chorus 3]
[F#m]Strength, courage and wisdom[Em]
And it's been inside [F#m]of me all alon[Em]g
[F#m]Strength, courage and wisdom[Em]
It's been inside [F#m]of me all alon[Em]g
Now every day I'm praying for
[F#m](Strenth, courage and wisdom)[Em]
To [F#m]find, [Em]yeah
[F#m](Strenth, courage and wisdom)[Em]
Inside of me
[Dm][Em][Dm][Em]

[Outro 1]
I [Dm]found it in me, I [Em]found it finally
And I'm [Dm]sure to keep it, so [Em]I, I say "thank you"
(I [Dm]found [Em]it) (I [Dm]found [Em]it)
[Fade out]
