[Intro]
Am Am7 Fmaj7 Gadd9
Am Am7 Fmaj7
Gadd9 Am
She was walking in the street,
Am7 Fmaj7
looked up and noticed
[Verse 1]
Gadd9 C
He was nameless, he was homeless
G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7
She asked him his name and told him what hers was
Gadd9
He gave her a story 'bout life
Am Am7 Fmaj7
With a glint in his eye and a corner of a smile
Gadd9 C
One conversation, a simple moment
G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7
The things that change us if we notice
Gadd9
When we look up sometimes
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Am7 Fmaj7
They said I would never make it
Gadd9 C
But I was built to break the mold
G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7 Gadd9
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own
[Chorus]
Am Am7 Fmaj7
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
G C G6/B
Single mothers waiting on a check to come
Am Am7 Fmaj7
Young teachers, student doctors
G C G6/B
Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to run
Am Am7 Fmaj7
This goes out to the underdog
G C G6/B
Keep on keeping at what you love
Am Am7 Fmaj7
You'll find that someday soon enough
G
You will rise up, rise up, yeah
[Bridge]
Am Am7 Fmaj7 G C G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7
[Verse 2]
G
C G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7
She's riding in a taxi back to the kitchen
Gadd9 C
Talking to the driver 'bout his wife and his children
G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7
On the run from a country where they put you in prison
Gadd9
For being a woman and speaking your mind
Am Am7 Fmaj7
She looked in his eyes in the mirror and he smiled
Gadd9 C
One conversa tion, a single moment
G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7
The things that change us if we notice
Gadd9
When we look up sometimes
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Am7 Fmaj7
They said I would never make it
Gadd9 C
But I was built to break the mold
G6/B Am Am7 Fmaj7 Gadd9
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own
