B
Take your pride and lift it high
D#m                   G#m F#
I've come to say goodbye
        B
You've got your live and I've got mine
 D#m                         G#m F#
Sometimes hard to draw that line

Chorus:
           C#m
I like to walk
                 F#
And my way is my own
              C#m
You taught me how
           F#
Don't you know

And there must be some place to meet
I'll take off my shoes,
I’ll walk barefoot when I do
Standing there in front of you
Want to be honest, I want to be true

Chorus:
I like to walk
And my way is my own
You taught me how
Don't you know what we found
Brother maybe

Take your pride and lift it high
           D#m              G#m
Take your pride and lift it high
                    F#
There must be someplace I am missing

C#m
I must leave without you
      G#m
Good advice I grow stronger
           F#
Where the mountains rise
C#m
Standing there in front of you
G#m
I want to honest
F#
I want to be true
In front of you
