Tuning: E A D G B E

Credit goes to Koichi Kondo for getting this altogether. I just made it easier to read and play. This entire song is slowly finger-picked. Play it how you think it should be played.

I n^Dever was the biggest or^Bm7 the fastest guy I ne^Dver hit a^Bm7 homerun when the game was t^Gied I k^Dnew from an ear^Bm7ly age I wasn't gonn^Ga be A d^Bm7octor or the CE^AO of any^Gthing

(Chorus)

So I s^Dang, "Sh^Bm7e Believes In Me" And I p^Glayed, "Fire On The ^DMountain" 'til^Bm7 I made my fingers bleed ^A I ^Gtried to stand out from the^A crowd But ^Bm7most times I just ^Estruck out at the ^Gplate ^A So I s^Dang

I w^Dasn't cool enough to be a ^Bm7ladies man ^DIt took m^Bm7e forever just to hold her ha^Gnd ^DFirst time we kisse^Bm7d, she whispered, I ^Dlove you But I ^Bm7wasn't brave enou^Agh to say, I lo^Gved her too

(Chorus)

So I ^Dsang, "You Are^Bm7 So Beautiful To^G Me" And I ^Dplayed,.. ever^Bm7y note to Faithful^Aly" ^GI loved her with eve^Arything But I c^Bm7ouldn't think of ^Eanything to^G say ^A So I s^Dang

G A Bm7 A

^DNo one believed in me as ^Bm7much as Mom S^Dee, she worked o^Bm7vertime to buy my first gu^Gitar Whe^Dn the angels call^Bm7ed her home, my s^Aister asked if I w^Dould speak But there were^Bm7 no words to say how mu^Ach she meant ^Gto me

(Chorus)

So I ^D sang, "It Is^Bm7 Well With My ^GSoul" And^D I played, "^Bm7I'm So Tired Of Being Al^Aone" 'Cause^G those were Mama's favor^Aite songs And ^Bm7what I felt would take too ^Elong to s^Gay ^A So^D I sang
