[Verse 1]

     Dm                                          F
Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen
Dm                                        F
So unsure but it seems, ’cause we’ve been waiting for you
Dm                                              F
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
        Dm                                               F
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway


Dm               C     Dm                      C
I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right
Dm                      C                   Bb
Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be
   A
Arrived too early


[Pre-chorus 1]

Dm         F                 Bb
And when I think of all the places I just don't belong
Dm            F                  Bb              C          F
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far


[Chorus]

F            C                      Dm
I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear
   Bb             F
Escape from this afterlife
F            C                     Dm
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on
Bb
Far away from here


[Verse 2]

Dm                                                 F
A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain
Dm                                                  F
Can leave this place but refrain, ’cause we've been waiting for you
Dm                                              F
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
Dm                                                       F
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

Dm                         C
This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall)
Dm                  C
No pain or sign of time (I’m much too young to fall)
Dm                           C                     Bb
So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign
     A
I've made up my mind


[Pre-chorus 2]

Dm           F                Bb
Give me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye
Dm           F              Bb              C
Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life


[Chorus]

F          C                       Dm
I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear
    Bb              F
escape from this afterlife
             C                     Dm
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on,
Bb
far away from here

F              C                         Dm
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
      Bb             F                       C
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
        Dm          Bb                    Dm
Take me back inside when the time is right


[Bridge]

Dm                Bb                             Gm                Bb  A
  Loved ones back home all crying 'cause they're already missing me
Dm              Bb                        Gm                 Bb  A
  I pray by the grace of God that there's somebody listening
Dm          Bb                Gm               Bb  A
  Give me a chance to be that person I wanna be
Dm             Bb                  Gm                 Bb  A
  Oh Lord I'll try so hard but you gotta let go of me


[Chorus]

F          C                       Dm
I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear
    Bb             F
escape from this afterlife
             C                     Dm
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on,
Bb
far away from here

F              C                         Dm
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
      Bb             F                       C
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
        Dm          Bb                    Dm
Take me back inside when the time is right
