Eb5
Now I can sing you the story line
 Eb5
And if you like my story fine
 B5                      C#5
But ain?t none of the glory mine
 Eb5
See my life was a lonely one
 Eb5
And I was dear momma's only son
 B5                          C#5
With no idea of what I?m gonna become
 Eb5
And I didn?t have long to know
 Eb5
That you don?t have to be grown to go
 B5                   C#5
I could have died so long before
 Eb5
Then I finally saw the sign
 Eb5
And I made it on down the line
 B5              C#5
One step at a time

 C5
I feel a lil better
 Eb5
I can smile at it now
 Bb5
I feel a lil better ?hah
 C5
Oh better
 Eb5                               Bb5
And even a little is still a lil better
  C#5
Oh have mercy on me

 Eb5
Ooh it?s probably plain to see
 Eb5
That I got a whole lot of pain in me
 B5                  C#5
And it will always remain in me
 Eb5
So cold it?s a crying shame
 Eb5
Yet here I am trying again
 B5                    C#5
Cause I refuse to die in vain
 Eb5
The circumstances put soul in me
 Eb5
And there ain?t no holding me
 B5                       C#5
I?ve got a heart made of gold in me
 Eb5
Can you believe this is where I?ve been?
 Eb5
And when adversity comes again
 B5                C#5
I?ll deal with it then

 C5
I feel better
 Eb5
I can laugh at it now
 Bb5
I feel better ?Ha ha
 C5
Oh better
 Eb5
And even a little is still a little better
 C#5
Oh have mercy on me

 Eb5
I said everything's fine you can take your time
 Eb5
What would be on your mind if you knew you was dyin'
 B5                               C#5
I would wanna just feel this a one more time
 Eb5
I said everything's fine you can take your time
 Eb5
What would be on your mind if you knew you was dyin'
 B5                                C#5
I would wanna just feel this a one more time
 Eb5
I wanna thank you morning sun
 Eb5
I wanna thank you lowly dirt
 B5                        C#5
Now I know I?m not the only one
 Eb5
I, I wanna thank you friendly ghost
 Eb5
When all the calls were close
 B5                         C#5
It seems like you care the most
 Eb5
I, I wanna thank you mom and dad
 Eb5
For hurting me so bad
 B5                   C#5
But you?re the best I ever had
 Eb5
I, I wanna thank you
