[Intro]
C Am G C
[Verse]
CI came, I saw, I conquered and never borrowed
The Ampride within my heart was never Cswallowed
CI think I'd better lay my head and rest
But when I Amthink about my Glife, I digressC  
CIt's not just that I don't know where I'm going
It's that I Amalways want to remember where I cCame from
All my Cmemories are oak trees rooted deeply in my mind
But life is Amfleeting, we're all Gfleeting
[Chorus]
I want to Amdie with ambition and with Cpurpose
But I want to Amlive with humility and graceC  
And I hope my Amdaughters grow to be just like my Cmother
With the Amstrength and the Gintention of living each Cday
I want to Amsing and laugh and cry and shout
And Csail all seven seas
And I want to Amclimb to the peaks of mountains because I cCan
But most of aAmll I want to teach my sons to Cbe just like my father
And to Amhold their hearts Ghigher than their Cheads
But this Amworld, world, world, we're Fliving in
Seems to have no Croom
For you and me to breathe
But if you Amclose your eyes and Flisten to
The world outside your Chead
You'll find that it's really not so bad after all
CI came, I saw, I conquered, and never borrowed
The Ampride within my heart was never Cswallowed
CI think I'd better lay my head and rest
But when I Amthink about it Gall, all, all...
[Chorus]
I want to Amdie with ambition and with pCurpose
But I want to Amlive with humility and graceC  
And I hope my Amdaughters grow to be just like my Cmother
With the Amstrength and the inGtention of living each Cday
I want to Amsing and laugh and cry and shout
And Csail all seven seas
And I want to Amclimb to the peaks of mountains because I canC  
But most of Amall I want to teach my sons to Cbe just like my father
And to hoAmld their hearts Ghigher than their CheadsG  C

[Intro]

C Am G C

[Verse]

I came, I saw, I conquered and never borrowed

Am C

The pride within my heart was never swallowed

I think I'd better lay my head and rest

Am G C

But when I think about my life, I digress

It's not just that I don't know where I'm going

Am C

It's that I always want to remember where I came from

All my memories are oak trees rooted deeply in my mind

Am G

But life is fleeting, we're all fleeting

[Chorus]

Am C

I want to die with ambition and with purpose

Am C

But I want to live with humility and grace

Am C

And I hope my daughters grow to be just like my mother

Am G C

With the strength and the intention of living each day

I want to sing and laugh and cry and shout

And sail all seven seas

Am C

And I want to climb to the peaks of mountains because I can

Am C

But most of all I want to teach my sons to be just like my father

Am G C

And to hold their hearts higher than their heads

Am F

But this world, world, world, we're living in

Seems to have no room

For you and me to breathe

Am F

But if you close your eyes and listen to

The world outside your head

You'll find that it's really not so bad after all

I came, I saw, I conquered, and never borrowed

Am C

The pride within my heart was never swallowed

I think I'd better lay my head and rest

Am G

But when I think about it all, all, all...

[Chorus]

Am C

I want to die with ambition and with purpose

Am C

But I want to live with humility and grace

Am C

And I hope my daughters grow to be just like my mother

Am G C

With the strength and the intention of living each day

I want to sing and laugh and cry and shout

And sail all seven seas

Am C

And I want to climb to the peaks of mountains because I can

Am C

But most of all I want to teach my sons to be just like my father

Am G C G C

And to hold their hearts higher than their heads
