Verse 1:
B              Ebm              Db                  B Ebm Db
Told them your dreams, and they all started laughing
               B           Ebm           Db              B Ebm Db
I guess you're out of your mind until it actually happens
 
Pre-Chorus:
B         Ebm       Db
  I'm the small town
 
One in seven billion
B           Ebm      Db
  Why can't it be me?
 
Chorus:
                   B          Ebm               Db
They told me I was out there, tried to knock me down
                      B                  Ebm             Db
Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house
                      B               Ebm           Db
They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me
                      B        Ebm      Db
'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies
                    B        Ebm               Db
They said I'm going nowhere, tried to count me out
                      B                  Ebm             Db
Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house
                      B               Ebm           Db
They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me
                      B        Ebm      Db
'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies
 
Verse 2:
B           Ebm         Db               B Ebm Db
When did we all stop believing in magic?
           B           Ebm        Db               B Ebm Db
Why did we put all our hopes in a box in the attic?
 
Pre-Chorus:
B         Ebm      Db
  I'm the long shot
 
I'm the Hail Mary
B           Ebm     Db
  Why can't it be me?
