G                  Bm
I look around and what I see
       Em
Is you don't belong here, it's clear to me
           G
What have you become
Bm                      Em
You're really not this girl
         G                          Bm
There's more to this, so what's it gonna take?
           Em
To get you off the street, when do you get a break?
     G
It's not what you wanted
Bm                Em
This is not your world

Am
I know where you'd choose to go
    B7
If you could disappear

Chorus:
              E   B
Anywhere but here
              F#m  A
Anywhere but here
         E
You can feel somethin's comin'
     B
You long to be free
     F#m         A
You just wanna be
              E
Anywhere but here

This sidewalk doesn't suit your soul
It's time to make some changes and take control
Find some room to move
Feel the wind in your hair
A clear blue sky and air to breathe
You know it's time to fly, and I believe
That there's so much more
And it's waiting for you out there

I can see where you wanna be
And it couldn't be more clear

Chorus:
Anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
You're waiting for somethin'
It's easy to see
You just wanna be
Anywhere but here

G                A
No more landlord, no more rent
         G                      A
Just a place of your own where you'd be content
     G
To share it all with someone
A                        B
Who'd share it all with you
   G                    A                       B
I believe somehow some day this will all come true

Chorus:
Anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
You can feel somethin's comin'
You long to be free
You just wanna be

Anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
You're waiting for somethin'
It's easy to see
You just wanna be

Anywhere but here
