I never was the bi[D1]ggest or the fa[Em7]stest guy[D1]
I [Bm7]never hit a [A]homerun when the [G1]game was tied
I [D1]knew from an [Em7]early age I wasn't [D1]gonna be
A [Bm7]doctor or the [A]CEO of [G1]anything[A2]
So I [D1]sang
She [Bm7]Believes In Me[A]
And I [G1]played Fire On The Mountain
Until I made my fingers [A]bleed
[G1]I tried to stand out [F#m]from the crowd
[Bm7]But most times I just [Em7]struck out at the [G1]plate [A2]
So I [D1]sang
I [D1]wasn't cool e[Em7]nough to be a l[D1]adies man
It [Bm7]took me for[A]ever just to [G1]hold her hand
[D1]First time we [Em7]kissed, she whispered, [D1]I love you
But I [Bm7]wasn't brave enou[A]gh to say, I [G1]loved her too[A2]
So I [D1]sang
You Are So [Bm7]Beautiful To Me[A]
And I [G1]played Every note to [Bm7]Faithf[A]ully
I [G1]loved her with [F#m]everything
[Bm7]But I couldn't think o[Em7]f anything to [G1]say [A7-A1-A2]
So I [D1]sang
Interlude
[G] [A] [Bm7] [A] [G]
[D1]No one [Em7]believed in me as [D1]much as Mom
See,[Bm7]she worked overtime to [A]buy my [G1]first guitar
[D1]When the angels called her [Em7]home, my sister asked if [D1]I would speak
But there [Bm7]were no words to [A]say how much she [G1]meant to me [A7-A1-A2]
So I [D1]sang,
It Is [Bm7]Well With My [A]Soul and I [G1]played,
"I'm So Tired Of [Bm7]Being [A]Alone"
[G1]'Cause those were Mama's f[F#m]avorite songs
[Bm7]And what I felt would [Em7]take too long to [G1]say [A7-A1-A2]
So I [D1]sang
