lyrics

Destiny

keyboard: Yamaha PSR-540
style:078 / Big Band Boogie
tempo: 140 bpm
voice: Acoustic Grand Piano

verse:

Dm F
I’ve graduated college, with honors no less.

C G
Four years of education. I’m ready to impress.

Dm F

You’re living out the fantasy your dad wants you to be.

C C
Find your own dream. Learn to break free.


bridge:

F G
I have. I did.

Am G
Who are you trying to kid?


verse 2:

Dm F
My degree is the ticket. Paper in my hand.

C G
Don’t expect the real world (employment), to be the promised land.

Dm F
You act like I’m naive, but it’s you I need to show.

C C
Becoming an adult, you’ll see a friend, not a foe.


bridge:

F Am G
Once you enter that world, it will never let you go.

F Am G
Youth can be a prison, you never outgrow.

F Am G
I’d rather be myself than someone I do not know.


chorus:

Em F#/D G C1
Destiny in front of us, the choices that we make

D Em C1 C D Am G F
We, can change, the future, if, we face it wide awake

Em F#/D G C1
Two roads before us, a path we must take

D Em C1 C D Am G F
We, can change, the future, if, we face it wide awake


verse 3:

Dm F
Come with me to Europe. Go. Don’t hesitate.

C G
Experience the teacher. A job will always wait.

Dm F
It’s not that I’m afraid to go. My destination’s clear.

C C
Living is the prize when you face the things you fear.


verse 4:

Dm F
I want to travel with you, but the real world doesn’t wait.

C G
You choose a path that’s common. Me, I choose fate.


chorus:

Em F#/D G C1
Destiny in front of us, the choices that we make

D Em C1 C D Am G F
We, can change, the future, if, we face it wide awake

Em F#/D G C1
Two roads before us, a path we must take

D Em C1 C D Am G F C F#/D G
We, can change, the future, if, we face it wide awake
