Celia Rose
V1: C Am Dm F
Some days I ask myself, where did I go wrong
How did I wind up here, with no where to go
Some days I tell myself, this cannot go on
I cannot stay here with no room to grow
Pre-chorus: Dm F/ Dm F G
I just need to hear someone say
You're gonna be ok.
Chorus:
C C7
I never thought I would be so lost
Am F
I don't want my children to pay the cost
Am G F
I need a place, a family, a home
C C7
I was falling down, now I'm standing strong
Am F
'Cause I've found a place where I can belong
Dm Em
And they see me, as the person that I dream to be
F G C
I no longer dream all alone....I've found a home.
V2: : C Am Dm F
These days I'm learning, how to start again
How to pick up all the broken pieces
That are tumbling in the wind
These days I wake up and say a little prayer
For all the love that now surrounds me
And all the good out there.
Pre-chorus:
I can see a brighter day
We're gonna be ok
Chorus
Bridge:
There are so many mothers out on the streets
Praying for better lives.
If we all lend a hand maybe they'll understand
That hope is still alive.
Last Chorus:
C C7
They never thought they would be so lost
Am F
They don't want their children to pay the cost
Am G F
They need a place, a family, a home
C C7
They were falling down, now they're standing strong
Am F
'Cause they've found a place where they can belong
Dm F
And what they see, is a future they had dreamed would be
F G C
They no longer dream all alone....they've found a home.
