BbLook at all that which surrGmounds Dmme
CmI'm supposed to call this hoFme
BbThe dark has become so overGmwhelmiDmng
So wAbhy dEbon't EbmI juFst Bbgo
Cm  Cm/maj7
Why can't you be more like your brother
EbTogether you would rule the throne
GThe evil and darkness would grow
FThis kingdom needs you
Bb"Why can't you just be more like PalDmlis?" they always ask
EbCould this feeling deep in mFe be the prophecy?
BbAs a child I heard such wDmonderful stories
Of laEbmps, and the oracle, and hFoly the sea
CmSilly boy, you speak of fiction
Cm/maj7 Eb  
Silly boy, you can't just leave them
Reaching for somCme fairy tale endiGng
FMyth or legend
BbOh, what's the use maDmybe they're right
EbWhat's the point of dreaming
If it can nevFer materialize?
BbTownsfolk are ashamed
DmWhy can't I lEbive up Dmto my fFamily nEbmame?
FWell it's nEbot mDme, but you sCmee it's juFst my pedigree
Cm  Cm/maj7
You're a reckless and romantic rogue
Your head is in the clAbouds
You'll be chained here all your liGfe
Shackled to the ground
FYou're not the chosen one
BbDon't you ever dEbmream of soFme place beEbtter
BbOr a lifCme that's greFater
BbDon't you ever fEbmeel like yFou've been dEbestined
BbFor sometCmhing bigger than yFour skin?Ab  
BbYou are so foolish
The dDmark has been your home
EbmIf you elope, I'll hunt you
Through Fsuffering you'll atone
BbDear Pallis, you're my brother
You lCmooked and watched over me
DmBut there's something bigger at stake
FMy purpose is this journey
DmBrother, you are shortsighted
FNaive and starry-eyed
CmYou are not the chosen one
This Fwill be your demise
BbBrother, I can't help this feeling
My hEbeart tells me to run
DmYou were meant to rule the dark
FI was meant to see the sun
BbDon't you ever dEbmream of soFme place beEbtter
BbWhen the Cmlight shineFs brighter?
BbDon't you ever fEbmeel like yFou've been dEbestined
BbFor sometCmhing bigger than yFour skin?Ab  
DmI tCmhink EbmI'll juFst Bbgo
