	Time is my destiny
	G               C              /B         Bb
	Why change the part of me that has to be free

	The love that passed me by
	I found no reason why
	But now each day is filled with the love

	(Bb)            Gm
	That very same love
	              Bbmaj7
	That passed me by
	           G7sus4  G7
	And that is why

Chorus 1:

	        C                  Dm 
	I can breakaway from that lonely life
	          Gm7        C7  Fmaj7  F   /E
	And I can do what I wanna do
	     Dm7       G7       Gm7/C
	And breakaway from that empty life
	        D7
	And my world is new

Verse 2:

	When I laid down on my bed
	I heard voices in my head
	Telling me now "Hey it's only a dream"

	The more I thought of it
	I had been out of it
	And here's the answer I found instead

	(Baby baby) Found out it was in my head
	(Baby baby) Found out it was my head
	(Baby baby) Found out it was in my head

Chorus 2:

	And I can breakaway to the better life
	Where the shackles never hold me down
	I'm gonna make a way for each happy day
	As my life turns around
