Am E I met a man of two feet tall Cadd9 This man was quite ambitious F Fm Am In a world that is so vicious to us all E Cadd9 I said, "Hi," as he replied F G C He said listen to these words that I have lived by my whole life Am F "You're only as tall as your heart will let you be, G C And you're only as small as the world will make you seem Am F And when the goin' gets rough, and you feel like you may fall G Am Just look on the bright side, you're roughly six feet tall." Am Am E I met a man of twelve feet tall Cadd9 He towered like a giant F Fm Am In a world that was defiant of his height E Cadd9 I said, "Hi," as he replied F G C He said listen to these words that I have dreaded my whole life Am F "You're only as tall as your heart will let you be, G C And you're only as small as the world will make you seem Am F And when the goin' gets rough, and you feel like you may fall G Am Just look on the bright side, you're roughly six feet tall." Am Am E I am a man of six feet tall Cadd9 Just lookin' for some answers F Fm Am In a world that answers none of them at all E Cadd9 I'll say, "Hi," but not reply F G C To the letters that you write because I found some peace of mind Am F Cause I'm only as tall as my heart will let me be, G C And I'm only as small as the world will make me seem Am F And when the goin' gets rough, and I feel like I may fall G C I'll look on the bright side, I'm roughly six feet tall.
