Key: A
A E
I'll be glad to sign my autograph if you want me to
D E
God knows I love singing, that's what I was born to do
A E
You see me up there center stage in the spotlight for a while
D E
But in the things that really matter I'm just sitting on the isle'
(Chorus)
D A
Cause I've seen a third grade angel with dark circles 'neath her eyes
D A E
Not a trace of hair left on her head saying Daddy please don't cry
C G
A single mom working overtime a college kid reading to the blind
F E A
When you look for heroes know that I'm just a singer in a band
A E
I'm thankful to be living in this childhood dream come true
D E
But sometimes the attention just leaves me confused
A E
Yeah I love my t-shirt on those kids my name there up in lights
D E
But when the show is done and I'm on the bus riding through the night'
(Chorus)
D A
I think of New York City and those firemen and cops
D A E
Who ran in and laid down their lives because it was their job
C G
A Soldier in a field of mines with each step he lays it on the line
F E A E D A E
When you look for heroes know that I'm just a singer in a band
C G
I'm humbled when you take the time to hear my life and verse and rhyme
F E A
When it comes to heroes know that I'm just a singer in a band
E D E
I'm a singer in a band
A E
I'll be glad to sign my autograph if you want me to
D E
God knows I love singing, that's what I was born to do
