[Verso 1]


Bb                 Bb/A 
I often say what I want to say wrong 
Eb                    F 
It's easier to say it all in song 
Bb                  Bb/A 
No throat will ever sing like mine 
Eb                F 
My fingerprint, a moment in time

[Verso 2]

Bb                Bb/A 
Sometimes I sound nasally & flat 
Eb                      F 
Or I go sharp, and it's tough gettin' back 
Bb                    Bb/A 
But my heart keeps me steady & true 
       Eb                   F 
When I pick guitar and sing songs for you

[Verso 3]


Bb                  Bb/A 
One day I'll take a final bow 
Eb                 F 
To my door, or an adoring crowd 
Bb                  Bb/A 
Either way, when my soul moves on, 
         Eb                         F 
You can look up the chords and keep strumming along
