1. Oh, here’s a story about a boy named Jay,

Am

nothing he did would ever get in my way,

F C

but there’s still a long, long way to go.

C

2. I’ve only ever seen his face on film,

Am

I’ve only ever heard the lines he’d say,

F C

but still they won’t get in my way.

F

I’m always told to be the dreamer kind,

C

wake up one morning and your dreams are life,

Dm Em

never let them bring you down, never let them tear me down.

F

I always thought that I would follow you,

C

every place and everything you do,

Dm Em

but I’m happy to be by myself, I don’t need no one else.

all the times of staring at the sun, you’re the one.

but I’m happy to be by myself, I don’t need no one else.
