You can pine your life away Wishin' things were better Waitin' here for judgment day While knittin' you a sweater But I believe that kind of life Won't set your spirit free So my friend, One small suggestion Where you oughtta be' You can take a journey Through this country's Flesh and blood On a ride past countryside And Mississippi mud Hit the street with two big feet To bear your heavy load And live life out there on the road Anyone you wanna be And anything you say Come tomorrow you'll be free Of who you are today Action and adventure When we change our fixed abode Go live life out there on the road Wouldn't you rather be Like royalty Respected like a king Where it's all civilized You'll be surprised The song you'll hear 'em sing People'll greet you there Some wanna share Enthusiastic news And all you need is guaranteed With one big pair of shoes One big pair of shoes! Hey what's your name, giant? Karl. Listen, Karl. The world is huge! Don't you wanna Step outside Look around See what's waiting there! We were born to Wake each morn Some place we've never been Checkin' out the locals As they watch us checkin' in Every new encounter In another new zip code We'll find it out there That's him, right there! Wait! He's not a monster He's a thinker He's a whiz This boy isn't half so bad As you all think he is I've been so inspired I've decided we're a pair! We're heading out there On the road You're leaving now?! Edward Bloom Don't tell me that you're Leaving us for good Jenny, yes I'm leaving But 'for good' I never could I'll be back some day And I'll be waiting while You're gone 'Til then, Be happy on the road C'mon Karl! Let's show 'em our traveling step! Every road trip needs a traveling step. Edward Bloom, take with you this Key to the City, and know our doors will always be open to you Suddenly, I'm the king Who holds the key But everybody secretly Is dying to be More and more Like who' Like you! Like you! I can see America Dependable and true Open sky and passerby Congratulating you Find the open highway And you've hit The mother lode Go crazy Out there on the Happy! Out there on the Finally out there Promise you'll return to us! On the road! On the road!!

Love this arrangement, good job! I’ve seen a few and this is my favorite (I did slow it down a little when playing though haha). Where did you find this sheet music?

I just heard this amazing song performed by local boy during performance by musical theater group. I was stunned by the combination of his wonderful voice and the lyrics. I'm so grateful to find at least the lyrics! Thank you!!!

another day locked away told to stay and hide where i can’t explain how window panes contain the world outside heaven knows i’ve tried so many stories so many lives here to be read all kinds of people parade the streets here in my head a score of subjects a stream of things for me to learn but while i’m turning i keep yearning for something more a story of my own a tale that i don’t know a picture i’m a part of paintings i’m inside would be worth a thousand words all the things out there unheard far away from tick and tock the girl who took on the world once upon a time won’t wait forever a life confined here on a page between the bindings i find a sentence and a cage he knows, i’m certain yet he asks me to keep in line to see his side when he can’t see mine and all the people in books the never say what they mean just take a look you’ll find subtext in every scene they say they will and they won’t they say they do and they don’t so do i dare? write a story of my own a tale that i don’t know a picture i’m a part of paintings i’m inside would be worth a thousand words all the things out there unheard far away from tick and tock far away from clicking clocks far away the girl who took on the world once upon a time (spoken) clock, this will be our little secret not a word

(Will) This river between us Grows wider each day He talks but he mostly has little to say I beg him to separate the truth from the tale But the river invites him This river between us Grows harder to bare Standing beside me, but not really there His flights turn to fancy as soon as he'll start His fancy excites him So Edward takes heart He promised he’d restrain himself He promised he'd be good He promised he'd contain himself As if he ever could My father speaks and shooting stars Fill the skies above you So why don’t I believe my father When he says I love you (Edward) This river between us (Will) There's a river between us (Both) There's an ocean between us (Edward) This river between us Is selfish and cold It flows where it wants to It can't be controlled My son doesn't want me To be what I am He don't give a damn (Will) He only sees what he invents (Edward) He only sees the black and white (Will) Only believe in the pre-tense (Edward) And always wants to start a fight (Will) He doesn't change (Edward) He doesn't stay (Both) And so the river winds it’s way This river between us may never be crossed And while we stay silent, we’re violently tossed (Will) I'll leave him to ponder (Edward) I’ll leave him alone (Will) 'Cause he's made of stone (Edward) He's made of stone (Will) He’s made of stone (Edward) He's made of stone (Both) This river between us Can rage like the sea Holding on for dear life As my (father/child) and me (Edward) He'll come to his senses (Will) Swimming and yet (Edward) He'll drop his defenses (Will) He's holding a net (Both) And thought I can't change him Someday he'll regret (Will) This river between us (Edward) This river between us (Will) This river between us (Edward) This river between us (Will) This river (Both) Between us

Amazing! Love the musical and love your arrangement :)

You are a hero of the internet: I adore The Clockmaker's Daughter, and have been wanting to add this song to my audition repertoire, but it's not on MusicNotes, so I have not been able to find a piano track to practice with anywhere--until now! Thank you so much for creating this. It is absolutely beautiful!

I love this! I just got casted at Edward Bloom and these tracks are going to help so much!

5:43 is for audition

There are two men in my life Him and you There are two men who'll be speaking When I'm through There are few men like your dad Not easy to define I know he isn't perfect But he's mine There are two men in my life Him and you And I never want to choose between the two He distorts and he invents Some stories don't make sense But why should that confuse you Why not let the man amuse you' He tells a harmless tale That always drives you mad But aren't you telling stories too Your point of view Just different from your dad There are two men in my life Him and you And the stories I believe in All come true He can give you what you need But you should take the lead There is magic in the man Please find it while you can

stranger lyrics: Stranger I'm feeling stranger Than I've ever felf before And so much more Different Like something old has joined With something new But still feels true I'm passing through a rite That every parent does I'm walking on some shared familiar ground Yet every step I take Is not a step that was And I found I like the sound of Stranger A child I've yet to meet Becomes my everything My song to sing Father And suddenly the weight of it is real What do I feel? × I feel connected In a way I've never known A line from dad to me to new-born son So from today l'Il never make a choice alone One for all All for one And when he's born l'Il teach him how to use his common sense He'll listen and he'll learn and he'll excel l'Il tell my son That life is lived in clear and present tense Not only in the stories we can tell My father told me stories I could never comprehend In every tale he'd claim to be the hero I've tried to understand him But I wonder if I can Because after almost thirty years I still don't know the man I wish I knew the man But he's a stranger My father is a stranger I know very well A puzzling shell Hopeful What's on its way help us both to grow But I don't know I don't know when I'Il understand What made him wild I don't know why he has the urge to fly I want to face him Like a man and not a child So l'Il try I'll realy try And in time, my boy is sure to see Brighter days for dad and me We can do things better than before So that strangers we will be no more

When does this song take place in the musical?

This is literally just midi, right?

Edward: What if I told you You could change the world With just one thought What if I told you You could be a king Anything you desired, boy Anything on a plate All within your power to create I know somewhere in the darkness There's a story meant for me Where I always know exactly what to say I know somewhere some surprising ending Waits for me to tell it my own way Be the hero of your story if you can Be the champion in the fight Not just the man Don't depend on other people To put paper next to pen Be the hero of your story, boy, and then You can rise to be the hero once again Now, the best part of an adventure is the people you meet. What if I said I met a witch When I was very young What if I said She showed me how I die Powerless in the face of it Terrified in the wood That was where my life was Changed for good Hey! What if I said I met a giant Wasting in a cave What if I claimed I rose To be far braver Than the brave All my life of stories, son, And every one is true So believe me As I'm telling you To be the hero of your story While you may Be the guy who gets the girl And saves the day You don't need A book of Greeks To teach you how To stay alive Be the hero of each story You derive Then forever you're The hero who'll survive Every tale that you invent Becomes a life That you make real Where each character You meet Becomes your friend You don't need to be A novelist To make believe what's Waiting 'round the bend Edward + All: Be the hero of your story 'Til it's done Why go promenade when You were born to run Edward: If you understand This premise You will never be alone Edward + Some: You can conquer Every challenge You can face each Stepping stone Edward + All: Be the hero of your story Edward: What if I swore I saw a mermaid swimming In the mist What if I told you She would be the first girl That I kissed Out there in the water Filled with eagerness and fear Here is what she whispered in my ear: Edward + All: Be the hero of your story Be the hero of your story Be the hero of your story Edward: Now listen, son. Now, one day, I met this fisherman, see? Frustrated Fisherman: Oh, you gotta help me! If I don't catch a fish, my family's gonna starve! Edward: Mmmhmm. Well, the fish are sleepin'! You gotta get'em movin'. Try the Alabama Stomp! Works every time! Something about this rythym really gets their fins movin’. Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime. Teach a man the Alabama Stomp, you feed his soul! I know somewhere in the future There’s adventure waits for me Filled with mystery and people I can love I know out there On the road of life I’ll live the story I’ve been Dreaming of Company: Live the story I’ve been Dreaming of! Be the hero every time You get the chance If the music stops Continue with the dance Edward Bloom: On a wing or on a prayer You get there Only with your voice All: Be attentive Be inventive Be the first one to rejoice With the story in your heart You won’t need Any other choice You’re a hero, Fighting dragons, winning wars Be the hero And the world will soon be yours!

Another day locked away Told to stay and hide Where I can’t explain how window panes contain the world outside Heaven knows I've tried So many stories So many lives here to be read All kinds of people Parade the streets here in my head A score of subjects A stream of things for me to learn But while I'm turning I keep yearning for Something more A story of my own A tale that I don't know A picture I'm a part of Paintings I'm inside Would be worth a thousand words All the things out there unheard Far away from tick and tock The girl who took on the world Once upon a time Won’t wait forever A life confined here on a page Between the bindings I find a sentence and a cage He knows, I'm certain Yet he asks me to keep in line To see his side When he can't see mine And all the people in books The never say what they mean Just take a look you’ll find subtext in every scene They say they will and they won’t They say they do and they don't So do I dare? Write a story of my own A tale that i don't know A picture I'm a part of Paintings I'm inside Would be worth a thousand words All the things out there unheard Far away from tick and tock Far away from clicking clocks Far away The girl who took on the world Once upon a time (Spoken) Clock, this will be our little secret Not a word

Beautiful. Thank you!

:D!
