[Verse]
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
so lately, been wondering,who will be there to take my place
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
when i’m gone you’ll need love to light the shadows on your face
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
if a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
then between the sand and stone, could you make it on your own

[Chorus]
C G
if i could, then i would,
Am7 F
i’ll go wherever you will go
C G Am7 F
way up high or down low, i’ll go wherever you will go

C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
and maybe, i’ll find out a way to make it back someday
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
to watch you, to guide you, through the darkest of your days
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
if a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
then i hope there’s someone out there who can bring me back to you

[Chorus]
F G
run away with my heart
Em Am7
run away with my hope
F G Em
run away with my love

C Gadd4/B
i know now, just quite how
Am7 F6/9 Gsus4
my life and love might still go on
C Gadd4/B Am7 F6/9
in your heart, in your mind, i’ll stay with you for
Gsus4
all of time

How to play Wherever You Will Go: key, chords and progression

Wherever You Will Go by The Calling sits in C major (no sharps or flats), and you need 7 chords to play it: C, G, Am7, F, Em, Gadd4/B and Gsus4.

Listen for C – G – Am7 – F (I – V – vi7 – IV in C major), the “four-chord” progression behind countless pop, rock and worship songs: the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – soh – lah – fah. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: on guitar, F and Gadd4/B need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
