G
I got wind beneath my wings
                            Dm
I think this time I'm gonna make it 'til morning
G
I got strength within my heart
                           Dm
I'm gonna sing for all the heroes who've fallen

Chorus:
                 C        Am                 G
Yeah, I'm gonna take the long, the long way home
                F        Am                   G
Yes, I'm gonna take the world, the world by storm

We've got magic in our bones
Just like the stars, we're gonna shine, bright and golden, ooh
We gon' bang down all the doors
Make sure we take back all the things that were stolen

Chorus:
Yeah, we're gonna take the long, the long way home, yeah
Oh, we're gonna take the world, the world by storm

               F 
See, with the heart of a sparrow
     C                                       G
Oh, tell me what arrow could ever bring you down, mmm, yeah
           F 
Oh, the escape, it was narrow
     C                             G             F 
But what a gift, the, the courage you found, mmm
               F 
See, with the heart of a sparrow
 C                                       G
Oh, tell me what arrow could ever bring you down
           F 
Oh, the escape, it was narrow
           C                           G
But, but what a gift, the courage you found, yeah

I got stars within my soul
I think the dust is gonna finally settle, but hurry
Pure as rivers, strong as mountains
We spread love like the flowers give petals

Chorus:
Oh, we're gonna take the long, the long way home
Oh, we're gonna take the world, the world by storm, yeah
We're gonna take, take the long way home, that's right
Then we're gonna take the world, the world by storm

Yes, we're gonna take the whole wide world by storm
