Verse:

          C
There's a tiny paper elephant
With a tiny paper friend
And they don't know what they're doing on the table

There's a larger kind of elephant
And it lives inside of you
And it knows that you can make it
       F
If you hit the follow-through…

C
It is a mystery
Everyone's got something going on these days
       F
And we don't have all the answers
For the questions that are raised…
            C
But you can do it.

Verses:

          C
There's a kiwi with a scarf on
There's a bird that looks surprised
And they know that you will get there in your time
There's a mislabeled Kenobi
There's a can wearing a tie
         F
And they know that life can feel like you're a Jedi with no wine

          G
But don't worry if it's not the same
If you never see the sign
           F
'Cause the things that make you different
Are what really make you shine

         C
You're a unique combination
You're the sum of all your parts
You're an egg with great potential
And it's not too late to start

            F
So when you think of something peculiar
That's when you take your chance
           G
'Cause the weirdest stuff's your moment
You take that kick in the pants

          C
You won't know quite when it's perfect
And you might still see the seams
               F
Just ride that elephant inside you
To the goalpost of your dreams

               C
'Cause you can do it.
We know you can do it.
