Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
E            Gdim7
 I'm nothing special,
   F#m7 B7                   E
in fact   I'm a bit of a bore
Bm7 E7   A
      If I tell a joke,
C#7                           F#m F#m7
   you've probably heard it before
B7    E                     B
  But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
          E        E7          A
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
Am          C#m
I'm so grateful and proud
   A7M/C#       F#m        F#m7
All      I want is to sing it  out loud

[Chorus]
B7             E
So I say thank you for the music,
F#m          B7     E
   the songs I'm singing
      C#m        C#m7    F#7         B7
Thanks   for all the joy they're bringing
    E                   F#m      G#7    C#m7
Who can live without it?   I ask in all honesty
A
What would life be?
Am             E               E7
Without a song or a dance, what  are we?
C# C#7 B/D# Fdim  F#m     C#7/G#
So I   say  thank you for the   music,
Am6      B7
   for giving it to me
E Gdim7

[Verse 2]
E              Gdim7     F#m7        B7
ther says I was     a dancer before I  could walk
E
Mhm,
Bm7
E7         A               C#7
  she says I began to sing long before I could talk
F#m F#m7 B7     E
And        I've often wondered,
        B
how did it all start?
          E          E7           A                Am
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart Like
    C#m
a melody can?
     A7M/C#    F#m            F#m7
Well,      whoever it was, I'm    a fan

[Chorus]
B7             E

I've

[Bridge]
Am6        E
been so lucky
              Am6
I am the girl with golden hair
E            Am6      G#7   C#m C#m7
I wanna sing it out to   everybody  
     F#m7                       B7
What a   joy, what a life, what a chance

[Chorus]
