C    Fmaj7           G  C F G
This park and these houses,
C    Fmaj7         Dsus4 Gsus4  G
old streets I have walked
C      C    F     G          C
Everything dear, will it be here
F            Dm7   Gsus4 G
One day when I am returning?

My friends will get married,
have children and homes
It sounds so nice, well-planned and wise
Never expecting surprises

Chorus:
F Fmaj7 F6 C     Am
I wonder,  it's frightening
Dm      Dm7      G       Gm7     C
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
F   G     Em7  Am
I wonder, it scares me
Dm7             E7
But who the the hell am
Am Gm7        C      F
I  if I don't even try
G          C  Am
I'm not a coward
Dm7    G          C Gm7  C
Oh no, I'll be strong
F     G          Em7 Am
One chance in a lifetime
Dm7                     G         C
Yes I will take it, it can't go wrong

My friends and my family,
this dull little town
Buses I've missed, boys that I've kissed
Everything old and familiar

Chorus:
I wonder, it's frightening
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, oh, it scares me
But who the the hell am
I if I don't even try?
I'm not a coward, oh no, I'll be strong
One chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it
Yes, I will take it, it can't go wrong
