  3. 3Loop the bar that keeps breaking until it feels easy, then add the left hand and take the speed back up.

LYRICS

We both know why (F)we’re here; I see it in (Bb)your eyes.

I guess it calms (F)my fear to know it’s not (Bb)a sur prise.

I thought one look (F)at you, look ing like a dream (Bb)come true would leave me speech (F)less like you (Bb)al ways do.

But now we’re (Ebmaj7)wide a wake

and we’ve got some (Abmaj7)plans to make.

Let’s take some ac tion, ba by!

So ba by give me your hand.

I’ve got some dreams to make true.

I’ve got the fu ture all planned.

(G)It’s (C)time to get se (G)ri ous, (Eb)time to get se (Bb)ri ous with (Gb)you.

I nev er thought (E)that I would...

Since I was two (G)or three, my life was planned (C)out neat.

I’d get my law (G)de gree and then win my (C)Sen ate seat.

A big white house (G)back east, all of the a men (C)i ties.

Three kids, at least, (G)just like the (C)Ken ne dys!

Here’s where our (Fmaj7)lives be gin.

But just where do (Bbmaj7)you fit in?

Fit me in!

I’ll break it down now, ba by!

Oh, ba by give me your hand!

Here’s my hand!

I’ve got some dreams to make true!

We both have dreams to make true!

I know that you’ll un der stand.

Oh yes, I un der (A)stand!

It’s (D)time to get se (A)ri ous, (F)time to get se (C)ri ous with...

(C)Se ri ous,

(F)got ta wake up and take our jour ney.

Se ri ous

I’m (Gm)tell in’ you as a fu ture at tor ney!

You want the moon and sky?

Then take it, don’t be shy!

Ba by, that’s why you and I

should break up!

Yes, ba by I’ll give you my (C#m)hand; we WHAT!

I’m gon na need some bod y (C)se ri ous,

(F)less of a Mar i lyn, more a Jack ie!

Se ri ous!

(F)Some bod y class y and not too tack y.

(F)WHAT!
