Digressions

C
I came, I saw, I conquered and never borrowed
F                                     C
The pride within my heart was never swallowed
C
I think I'd better lay my head and rest
F                           G            C
But when I think about my life, I digress
C
Its not just that I don't know where I'm going
F                                                C
Its that I always want to remember where I came from
          C
All my memories are oak trees rooted deeply in my mind
F                                      G
But life is fleeting, we're all fleeting

           F                             C
I want to die with ambition and with purpose
                F                        C
But I want to live with humility and grace
                F                                   C
And I hope my daughters grow to be just like my mother
                F                 G                     C
With the strength and the intention of living each day
           F
I want to sing and laugh and cry and shout
      C
And sail all seven seas
                 F                                          C
And I want to climb to the peaks of mountains because I can
              F                                    C
But most of all I want to teach my sons to be just like my father
         F                   G                  C
And to hold their hearts higher than their heads

           F
But this world, world, world, we're living in
                   C
Seems to have no room
 C
For you and me to breathe
             F
But if you close your eyes and listen to
      C
The world outside your head
                             G
You'll find that it's really not so bad after all
C
I came, I saw, I conquered, and never borrowed
         F                             C
The pride within my heart was never swallowed
C
I think I'd better lay my head and rest
F                             G
But when I think about it all, all, all...

           F                             C
I want to die with ambition and with purpose
               F                          C
But I want to live with humility and grace
              F                                       C
And I hope my daughters grow to be just like my mother
                 F               G                      C
With the strength and the intention of living each day
            F
I want to sing and laugh and cry and shout
      C
And sail all seven seas
                  F                                         C
And I want to climb to the peaks of mountains because I can
            F                                       C
But most of all I want to teach my sons to be just like my father
          F                G                      C
And to hold their hearts higher than their heads
