I Was Here Lyrics
Lady Antebellum

(Capo on 1st fret)

You will (F)notice me
I'll be-(C)lieve in my (ConB)mark, like in-(Am)itials carved (G) in an (F)old oak tree
You (G)wait and see
(Am)Maybe I'll write like Twain wrote
(F)Maybe I'll paint like Van Gough
(D)Cure the common cold
I don't know but I'm (F)ready to start, ‘cause I know in my heart

I (C)wanna do somethin’ that matters, 
say somethin’ different, 
somethin’ that (F)sets the whole (G)world on it's (Am)ear
I wanna (G)do somethin (F)better, with the time I've been (Dm)given
I wanna (ConE)try to (F)touch a few hearts in this (ConE)life,
and leave nothin’ (F)less than something that (G)says I was (ConE)here

(F) (Am) (G) (ConE) (F) (Am) (G)

I will (F)prove you wrong
If you (C)think I’m all (ConB)talk, you’re (Am)in for a (G)shock
‘Cause this (F)stream’s too strong
And be-(G)fore too long, (Am)maybe I'll compose symphonies
(F)Maybe I'll fight for world peace
(D) ‘Cause I know it's my destiny to leave more (F)than a trace of myself in this
place

I (C)wanna do somethin’ that matters
say somethin’ different
somethin’ that (F)sets the whole (G)world on it's (Am)ear
I wanna (G)do somethin’ (F)better, with the time I've been (Dm)given
I wanna (ConE)try to (F)touch a few hearts in this (ConE)life
and leave nothin (F)less than somethin’ that (G)says I was (ConE)here

(F) (Am) (G) 

(Dm)And I know that (ConE)I, 
I will do (F)more than just pass through this (ConE)life
I'll leave nothin’ (F)less than somethin’ that (G)says I was (ConE)here, (F)
(Am) (G)I (ConE)was here (F) (Am) (G) x repeat and fade
