Introduction

(**See Introduction Note at bottom of tab, for clarity and detail**)

Verse

 I have often dreamed, of a far off place

 Where a Great warm welcome will be waiting for me.

 Where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face

 And a voice keeps saying this is where I’m meant to be;

First Chorus:

 I will find my way, I can go the distance

 I'll be there someday, if I can be strong

 I know ev’ry mile, will be worth my while

 I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong

**See Monologue Note 1**

2nd Chorus:

 I am on my way, I will go the distance

 I don't care how far, somehow I'll be strong

 And a thousand years, would be worth the wait

 It might take a lifetime, but somehow I’ll see it through.

Bridge

 But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part

 For a hero’s strength is measured by his heart

Last Chorus:

 I will beat the odds, I will go the distance

 I will face the world, fearless, proud, and strong

 I will please the gods, I can go the distance

 Til I find my hero's welcome right where I belong.

(Optional Tag Chord progression **For Theater purposes, the time used during this could

Tag: (Slower)

 I will search the world, I will face it’s harms

 Til I find my hero’s welcome, waiting in your arms
