There Must Be More- Joshua Ingram

G D Em C
I quit school at 21, thought I was going nowhere
life could be a little more fun than lashing my ambition to a plastic chair
I drove south until I could see Fort Worth in the sky
Leading me home to my family repeating to myself a hundred reasons why
All I could think in the darkness between where I'm going and where I'm from
is there's got to be something to satisfy me, and my longing for a reason to run

D C
Looking to the future, I was wasting today living for tomorrow I might never meet
Planning, preparing for what lay ahead and missing what lay at my feet

There must be more to this life than making a living, than taking a wife
I've got plans for how my life will turn out but I'll let them ride
Cause there must be more

This girl wanted to be my wife
we were moving a little too fast
It was not long before we found out
that sometimes love doesn’t last

Drove out to Big Bend to take a break, stood on a mountain an looked down
on all the world just moving in the same way, never taking time to look around
from the top of the world I hollered STOP!
the air moved through my hair, the bright sunlight lit warm upon my face
the mountains rose where the river flows and I thank God that I finally found this place

There must be more to this life than making a living, than taking a wife
I've got plans for how my life will turn out but I'll let them ride
D
Cause I won't listen when they say it can't be done
I’m gonna keep pushin' till I'm dead and gone
G D Em C
There must be more, more, more to this life
