Am            G
Grew up in a small town
C                        F
And when the rain would fall down
Am         G           F
I'd just stare out my window
Am                G
Dreaming of what could be
C                  F
And if I'd end up happy
Am G      F
I would pray

Am              G
Trying hard to reach out
C                     F
But when I tried to speak out
Am         G            F
Felt like no one could hear me
Am           G
Wanted to belong here
C                       F
But something felt so wrong here
Am G     F
So I'd pray
         Am   G  D F G
I could break away

Chorus:
C                              G
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
     Am                    F
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
C
Make a wish, take a chance,
G                  Am    G F
Make a change, and break away.
C                       G
Out of the darkness and into the sun.
    Am                     F
But I won't forget all the ones that I love.
      C
I'll take a risk, take a chance,
G                   Am    G F
Make a change, and break away

Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

Chorus:
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
I won't forget all the ones that I love (I gotta)
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway

 G
Buildings with a hundred floors
C                F
Swinging with revolving doors
G                                 C    F
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me
G                    C      F
Gotta keep movin on movin on
      D
Fly away
        F G
Break away

Chorus:
I'll spread my wings and
I'll learn how to fly (Learn how to fly)
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget of the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
