Really not sure about the first line of the bridge, but this is mostly what it sounds like :)
 
C#m     A           B
 
C#m     A           E
 
 
Verse 1
C#m
Cement and steel frames 
    A                  B
Don’t mean too much to me 
C#m                                  A         B
For nothing ever rivals the sound of sweet melody 
C#m
I’d trade it all for music 
         A              B
Business meetings for a stage 
C#m
A fountain pen for a mic in hand 
 A                       E
Yes, that seems fair to me 
 
 
 
Refrain 1
G#m                          F#m
The freedom to make love and music 
G#m                     A7
That’s the freedom of a king 
 
C#m    A    B    C#m    A    E
 
Verse 2
C#m
What's worth the fight 
        A              B
Bright ideas just a dead-end streetlight 
C#m                            A          B
What's born innate, left idle never sits right 
C#m                       A                    B
I found it when I was 16, lied to myself till I was 19 
C#m                                 A           E
Didn’t want to wake at 50 and ask; what have I done? 
 
 
 
Refrain 2
G#m                           F#m
The freedom to make love and music 
G#m                      A7
That’s the freedom of a king
 
 
 
Chorus 1
C#m          E
Dreams are what you chase 
B           A
Dreams are what you keep safe 
C#m                E
Seems they're the first to break 
      B                  A
When you shouldn’t have waited 
C#m           E       B                           A
Do what you love, for love is what leads to happiness 
C#m                E     B            E
And that’s all we really want in the end 
 
C#m    A    B    C#m    A    E
 
Verse 3
C#m
The day will come 
        A            B
When my son will ask me 
C#m
If he can chase his pipe dream 
A                B
A throne of his own 
C#m                       A                 B
And I’ll fear for him like all good parents do, 
C#m
But tell him it’s not up to me 
A             E
It’s up to you 
 
 
Refrain 3
 
G#m                           F#m
The freedom to make love and music 
G#m                       A7
That’s the freedom of a king
 
 
Chorus 2
 
C#m         E
Dreams are what you chase 
B           A
Dreams are what you keep safe 
C#m                 E
Seems they're the first to break 
     B                  A
When you shouldn’t have waited 
C#m         E          B                     A
Do what you love, for love is what leads to happiness 
C#m                 E     B           E
And that’s all we really want in the end 
 
 
 
 
 
Bridge
G#m                         B
I might be crazy, but I’m strumming 
    C#m     B      A
My fate may seem insane 
         C#m         B    A7
But I won't sign my life away 
   B
Oh no 
 
C#m         E         A       E      F#m     G#m  X3
 
Outro
C#m                E
I arrived on a sailing ship 
        A                  E
From a land not far from here 
     F#m                   G#m
My father was the king and I was born 
    A            E
To carry on his legacy 
C#m                      E
My father said that one day his kingdom 
       A              E
Would all be mine to keep 
    F#m                  G#m
But I declined with an innocent smile 
N. C.                        E
Because I know it’s not my dream
