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
