[Verse 1]
        F                                     Am
The sum of all my fears like dread are from demons yet to come
        Dm                                    G                       C
All the things I should've mentioned wave goodbye and "we'll see you soon"
        F                                   Am
It's the words I've never written that say more about myself
        Dm                         G               C
Where empty is the promise lies a pocket full of doubt

[Chorus]
              F               Dm
So may the road I've yet to take
          F               Dm
Leave a smile across my face
          F                    C            Am
'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
                F          C
For I still belong in the cradle of humankind

[Verse 2]
           F                               Am
Though my time may be less traveled than those that came before
           Dm                             G                 C
We're all exiles here in madness kicking down each other's door
      F                      Am
Unforgiven is the lesson we pour upon ourselves
        Dm                                  G              C
When a helping hand is needed, slap in the face is what we get

[Chorus]
            F              Dm            F               Dm
But I will fight for this right and each moment of it's life
          F              C                  Am
'Till I witness all the differences yet to heal

              F               Dm
So may the road I've yet to take
          F               Dm
Leave a smile across my face
          F                    C            Am
'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
                F          C
For I still belong in the cradle of humankind

[Verse 3]
           F                           Am
Sometimes drink till I am empty, grab another from the shelf
            Dm                               G                C
Though I'm stuck in conversation, it's with myself and no one else
       F                            Am
Never listen to much reason till I hear it's a last call
        Dm                            G              C
When I notice that my ghost is still dancing on his own

              F               Dm
So may the road I've yet to take
          F               Dm
Leave a smile across my face
          F                    C            Am
'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
                F          C             F
For I still belong in the cradle of humankind

[Bridge]
             C
Wherever you go
C
(The sun sets to rise on a day that you find you Struggle to be but you're already there)
             F
Wherever you go
             C
Wherever you go
C
(A passionless life has no words to write it's a body that's broken and breathless of life)
                 F
Oh, wherever you go
                Bb                               F
There'll always be a roof and a dream above our head
                C        Bb                 F
As long as I'm breathing, then forever I'll be

[Chorus]
            F              Dm            F               Dm
Arh, I will fight for this right and each moment of it's life
          F              C                  Am
'Till I witness all the differences yet to heal

            F                Dm
So may the road we've yet to take
         F                Dm
Leave a smile across our face
           F                  C            Am
'Till the laughter sheds the darkness far behind
              F             C
For we still belong in the cradle of humankind
