Thought I'd put it on here to make it easier to find.
Capo 3.
[Verse 1]
G C G
It was a dark day when I lost my faith
G D
I wasn't the pony I thought I'd be
G C G
And it seemed that no one could relate
G D
There was nothing left to see
C G D Em
So I took a walk to the edge of the town
C D
And thought of leaving it all behind
C G D Em
When I saw a little letter fall right out of the sky
C D
As a grey mare hovered way up high
G C G
I thought I was crazy when I saw her wave
G D
And then simply fly away
G C G
So I opened the letter and looked inside
G D
And what was written made my day...
It said
[Chorus]
C G D Em
Isn't it great to be different?
C G D
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?
C G D Em
When you learn to start accepting yourself
C D
You'll become a shining star
[Verse 2]
G C G
To this day the writing on that page
G D
Is mottled by the tears I shed
G C G
Cuz at that moment something inside me changed
G D
And a bright new path I lead
C G D Em
I ran back home and I picked up my old guitar
C D
And I started strumming these chords
C G D Em
And I sang her words along with this song
C D
And I heard someone sing along
And we sang
[Chorus]
C G D Em
Isn't it great to be different?
C G D
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?
C G D Em
When you learn to start accepting yourself
C D
You'll become a shining star
[Verse 3]
G C G
I turned around and I saw her at my door
G D
That cute grey mare with the wall-eyed stare
G C G
She said, "I've heard you play and sing before.
G D
And I heard a sadness I could not bear."
C G D Em
"I just wanted to tell you that the hardest thing I've faced
C D
Wasn't the teasing or the pain
C G D Em
It was convincing myself I wasn't stupid, strange, or lame
C D
And helping others do the same."
*whistling*
G C G
These last few years flew by just like a blur
G D
I'm now exactly where I should be
G C G
And I know I owe it all to her
G D
The beautiful mare who believed in me~
[Chorus]
(x2)
C G D Em
Isn't it great to be different?
C G D
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?
C G D Em
When you learn to start accepting yourself
C D
You'll become a shining star
C G D Em
Isn't it great to be different?
C G D
Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?
C G D Em
When you learn to start accepting yourself
C D
You'll become a shining star
[Outro]
C D
You'll become a shining star (Isn't it wonderful)
C D
You'll become a shining star (Isn't it great)
C D G
When you learn to love just who you are
C D G
