Em9

          Em9
I have my thoughts to position

But do I know how to act?

I have no silent ambitions

But does that make me a man
        Fmaj7
Until I learn all I can

And mean all I understand
B7#5         Em9
 As a way of giving

      Em9
I'm a piece of the earth
       Em9    
I take no offence
         Em9
I can be who I am
       Em9     
I have no pretence
        Fmaj7
Only to what you can be

If you want to be 
B7#5           Em9           B7#5 Em9 B7#5
 It's a way of living

           Em9                        A7
I've got a pen in my pocket does that make me a writer
Em9                              A7 
Standing on the mountain doesn't make me no higher
Em9                     A7
Putting on gloves don't make you a fighter
            Em9             
And all the study in the world
        B7#5
Doesn't make it science
Em9
 Yeah.

So grab a piece in the air
Try an' make it sing
Try and be who you can
It's the real, real thing
I'm into what you can be
If you want to be
As a way of living

I've got a pick in my pocket does that make me a player
Words can't do - what action does louder
Putting on gloves doesn't make me a fighter
And all the study in the world doesn't make it science

I've got a pick in my pocket does that make me a player
Words can't do - what action does louder
Putting on gloves doesn't make me a fighter
And all the study in the world doesn't make it science

I've got a pen in my pocket does that make me a writer
Standing on the mountain doesn't make me no higher
Putting on gloves don't make you a fighter
And all the study in the world
Doesn't make it science
