Em      G           Bm
20,000 miles to an oasis.
Em      A            G
20,000 years will I burn.
Em       G        Bm
20,000 chances I wasted
Em               A         G
Waiting for the moment to turn.
                 D
I would give my life to find it,
Bm
I would give it all.
G              A
Catch me if I fall.

Walking through the woods, I have faced it
Looking for something to learn
Thirty-thousand thoughts have been wasted
Never in my time to return
I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

      D   G            D  E
All alone, waiting to fall.

Forty-thousand stars in the evening
Look at them fall from the sky
Forty-thousand reasons for living
Forty-thousand tears in your eyes
I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

D             Em
Catch me if I fall.
D             Em
Catch me if I fall.
Em             D
Catch me if I fall
Em             D
Catch me if I fall
Em             D
Catch me if I fall
Em             D
Catch me if I fall
Em             D
Catch me if I fall
Em             D
Catch me if I fall.
