[Verse 1]
Ab
There's not a morning I begin without a thousand questions running through my
Ab7
mind
Ab
That I don't try to find the reason and the logic in the world that God
Fm
designed
Ab/Eb Gm D Gm
The reason why, a bird was gi-ven wings
C7 Fm C F
If not to fly, and praise the sky with every song it sings
Fm Bb Cm G Cm B+ Eb/Bb
What's right or wrong, where I belong within the scheme of things
F/A Ab Eb Bbm Eb
Ab
And why have eyes that see and arms that reach unless you're meant to know
Ab7
there's something more
Ab Fm
If not to hunger for the meaning of it all then tell me what a soul is for
Ab/Eb Gm D Gm
Why have the wings unless you're meant to fly
Eb7 Fm C Fm
And tell me please why have a mind if not to question why
[Chorus]
Bbm Eb
And tell me where, where is it written what it is I'm meant to be
Ab Db
That I can't dare to have the chance to pick the fruit of every tree
Bbm C
Or have my share of every sweet imagined possibility
Fm Eb Ab
Just tell me where, tell me where
[Verse 2]
Ab Ab7
If I were only meant to tend the nest then why does my imagination sail
Ab Fm
Across the mountains and the seas beyond the make-believe of any fairy tale
Ab/Eb Gm D Gm
Why have the thirst if not to drink the wine
Eb7 Fm C Fm
And what a waste to have a taste of things that can't be mine
[Chorus]
Bbm Eb7
And tell me where, where is it written what it is I'm meant to be
Ab Db
That I can't dare to see the meanings in the mornings that I see
Bbm C
Or have my share of every sweet imagined possibility
Fm Eb Fm
Just tell me where, where is it written, tell me where
Db9 Ab
Or if it's written anywhere
