D#                       Cm
Somewhere out there's a dream that's not forgotten
         G#                A#           D#
But this world is not for stopping for me
    D#
And I will try and I will keep on trying,
    Cm
I've set my goals there's no denying
G#                  A#            D#
Never stop fighting for what I believe

G#                Cm
Many people will come and go
D#               A#
Many faces long lost you know
G#            Cm
Many fights, many make ups
D#            A#
Many kisses, too many break ups

Chorus:
G#
I got no roots they're not set in stone
Cm
I got no place that I call home
D#                       A#
I'm just a lo-lo-lonely soul
G#
I got no roots they're not set in stone
Cm
I got no place that I call home
D#                       A#
I'm just a lo-lo-lonely soul

        G#
And the time will come when the day is done
        Cm
And the fighting's over, the race is run
        D#                     A#
I don't know what I'm looking for
          G#
And this life I lead it's a curious thing but
   Cm
I can't deny the happiness it brings
         D#                    A#
I don't know what I'm looking for

Chorus:
Many people will come and go-o-o
Many faces long lost you know
I'm just a low, low lonely soul
And there'll be many fights many makeups
Many kisses, too many breakups
A low, low lonely soul

I got no roots they're not set in stone
I got no place that I call home
I'm just a low low lonely soul
