DBm7 I never was the biggest or the fastest guy DBm7G I never hit a homerun when the game was tied DBm7G I knew from an early age I wasn't gonna be Bm7AG A doctor or the CEO of anything
(Chorus) DBm7 So I sang, "She Believes In Me" GDBm7A And I played, "Fire On The Mountain" 'til I made my fingers bleed GA I tried to stand out from the crowd Bm7EGA But most times I just struck out at the plate D So I sang
DBm7 I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man DBm7G It took me forever just to hold her hand DBm7D First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you Bm7AG But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
