[D]
There was a time in my life that I felt so all alone
That I never thought that someday I would have a happy home
A family [G] and a four-track radio, shack [D] microphones
A backyard and a hammock and a paid-off student loan
A backyard and a hammock and a paid-off student loan
So if [G] you see me and [D] I'm dreaming
About [G] selling socks on [D] eBay
Shake me hard till [B] I'm [D] awake
The stitches [G] will [D] unravel
The stitches [G] will [D] unravel
The stitches will [A] unravel if you knit with [D] fishing line
Though your cast will be refined
You'd be better off with twine
When I was a kid we would play Annie at recess
I was always Sandy because I was the smallest
From [A] all that crawling on the blacktop there were holes in [D] all my jeans
And in the toes of my boat shoes but I never complained
Because I didn't think that I could sing
See I never perfected that nasally thing
The way all the kids sang in the school play
Now I know it's better if we don't all sound the same
Now I [G] know it's better if we don't all [A] sound the same
So if [D] you hear me and I'm screaming
About auditions for Annie
I [D#] hope you [A] will try out with me
There are [D] parts for everybody
And you don't need to be the dog unless you like [F#m] being [D] the doggie
He's up against a team that he has never seen before
And they march into the outfield like they're marching off to war
It's a good one out to right field but they're quick and make the play
And as the [G] curtain closes he just bows and [D] walks away singing
If [G] you're breathing you [D] are living
And if you're living you are learning
So write and [G] write and keep [D] on writing
Just make [Bm] sure your life's [D] exciting
So if you [G] see me and I've joined [D] the roller derby
Know [A] that [G] I've become something I always [D] wanted to be
[A] Fast and [G] strong and part of a team
Teacher thanks [Dm] for everything
[D] You said if you're breathing you are living
And if you're living you are learning
So write and write and keep on writing
Just make sure your life's exciting
Write and write and [A] keep on writing
Just make sure your [D] life's exciting
Write [G] and write and keep on writing
Just make sure your life's exciting
Just make sure your life's [D] exciting
Just make sure your life's exciting
