Hello Middle Earth

This is a song I wrote for guitar about how special LOTR is to me. The chords I would put on, but I don't think you could play it unless you knew the tune.

(verse 1)
Tell me there's somewhere my mind can be free.
Tell me a world much different from my own.
I'm tired of seeing loveliness broken.
I'm tired of hearing lands wrought with despair.
Such a perfect world I know I'll never find.
But I still wish one would be there.

(chorus)
I want to fly on wings of eagles.
I want to walk when the Shire's full in bloom.
I want to dance under leaves that are golden
Where light, love, and beauty did not merely live in tales of old.
Hello Middle Earth. Hello, Hello.
(repeat once)

(verse 2)
Won't you come with me to Lothlorien
And hear the elves chant their mournful song?
Sometimes I feel like I am one of them,
Wondering when this world went wrong.
Won't you breathe the air the hobbits breathe?
Strength and height do not make one great.
And when you see the joy and laughter in their eyes,
You'll want to dance to, you'll long to be there too.

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
Middle Earth, Middle Earth -
In our imagination only,
But still there you can learn so much.
While the dwarves craft their jewels dilligently,
Will you let your life slip past?
Your childish reveries won't make it last.

(repeat chorus two times with out the "hello Middle Earth" part, saving it for the second time.)
