Biografía:
Jason Robert Brown is an American musical theatre composer and lyricist from Ossining, New York. His career began with the unorthodox Songs for a New World, whose original off-Broadway production ran for 28 performances at the WPA Theater in New York City in 1995. The show sits on the boundary between musical and song cycle: it is a series of largely disjoint songs with (unlike a musical) no plot or characters that continue from song to song, but the songs and production themselves are highly theatrical and character-driven.

[Verse 1]
C G
Once upon a time I had tides to control
Am
I had moons to spin
F
And stars to ignite
Am G
And they threw flowers at my feet
F
When I walked through the town
C G
Once upon a time I had lives to protect
Am
I had rules to change
F
And wrongs to set right
Am G
And there were people at my side
F
And there were rivers I could guide
I wanted nothing in return
[Pre-Chorus]
F
Let me out of here
G
Give me back all my dreams
C
Let me out of here
Am
Let please see the sun
F
Let me out of here
G
At least tell me what I did wrong
[Chorus]
C G
I'm king of the world
Am
Chief of the sea
F
High in the wind
At least I used to be
C G
And I'm king of the world
Am
Please set me free
F
Let me remind them of my promise
C
Live my given destiny
[Verse 2]
C G
Once upon a time I had fate in my hands
Am F
And the confidence of a million regimes
Am G
And they said, "Brother you're in charge
F
We'll follow anything you say"
C G
Once upon a time Father said to me
Am
"Child you are everything
F
That you see in your dreams"
Am G
And I thought, Jesus, that's the key
F
There are no walls surrounding me
There are no prisons in this life
[Pre-Chorus]
F
Let me out of here
G
Give me back to the wind
C
Let me out of here
Am
Let me please see my son
F
Let me out of here
G
Don't you understand who I am?
[Chorus]
C G
I'm king of the world
Am
Chief of the sea
F
High in the wind
At least I try to be
C G
And I'm king of the world
Am
Please set me free
F
I had the power and the promise
C
Give me back my family
[Bridge]
Am F
Why are we punished for wanting to explore?
C G
Why am I sitting in this cell?
Am F
I was not challenging the system
C
I was working for the people
G
I just wanted to be better
Am F
Why are we punished for wanting to survive?
C G
Why am I locked behind these bars?
Am F
Tell the children I'll return to them
C
Tell them . . . Someone
G
Let them know I will be free
G
I will not be defeated
G
I will stand like a mountain
G
And the road will stretch before me
G
And they'll know it's time to follow
G
And we'll lift our eyes
G
And raise our heads
G
And face the sun
G
And tell the future
[Chorus]
C G
I'm king of the world
Am
Land of the free
F
High in the sky
The best that I can be
C G
And I'm king of the world
Am
Watch and you'll see
F
Nothing can stop me from tomorrow
Keep me from my destiny
C G
I'm king of the world
Am F
I'm king of the world
C C
I'm . . . I'm .
