[Gm]It's time you [Gm7]learned a [Dm]lesson
[Gm]It's time that [Gm7]you [Dm]understand
[Gm]Don't ever [Dm]count on [F]anybody [C]else
In [Eb]this or any [F]other [Gm]land
[Gm]I once hoped [Gm7]for [Dm]friendship
[Gm]To find a [Gm7]place among my [Dm]kind
[Gm]But those [Dm]were the [F]childish [C]wishes
Of [Eb]someone who [F]was [Gm]blind
Open up your [Eb] [Gm]eyes
See the [Eb]world from [Bb]were I [F]stand
Me among the [Cm]mighty
You [Cm]caged at [F]my [Gm]command
Open up your [Eb] [Gm]eyes
Give up [Eb]your sweet [Bb] [F]fantasyland
It's time to [Cm]grow up and get wise[Gm]
Come now [Cdim7]little one
Open up your [Gm]eyes
[Gb]We all start [Bbm]out the same
[Gb]With simple naïve [Db]trust
[Gb]Shielded from the [Bbm]many ways
That [Gb]life's not fair or [Db]just
[Bb]But then there comes a [Dm]moment
A simple [Bb]truth that you must [Dm]face
If you [Eb]depend on [Dm]others
You'll [Bb]never find your [A]place
[F] [F6] [Gm7] [Dm] [Ab] [Eb] [Bbm] [B]
[Bbm] [B]
[Ab] [Bm] [Bdim7]
[Bb]And as you take that [Dm]first step
Upon a [Gm]path that's all your [C]own
You [Gm]see it all so [Dm]clearly
The [Gm7]best way to [Dm]survive is all [Gm]alone
Open up your [Eb] [Gm]eyes
And see [Eb]the world [Bb]from [F]where I stand
Me among the [Cm]mighty
You [Cm]caged at [F]my [Gm]command
Open up your [Eb] [Gm]eyes
And [Cm]behold the [F]fading [Gm] [Bb]light
It's time to [Cm]grow up and get [Dm]wise
Come now [Cdim7]little one
[Dm]O[Bb]pen [Dm]up [Bb]your [Gm]eyes
