Verse 1:
            A minorAm           Fmaj7Fmaj7
She was walking in the street, looked up and noticed
    C majorC   G+G        C*
He was nameless, he was homeless
   Cmaj7Cmaj7    A minorAm           Fmaj7Fmaj7
She asked him his name and told him what hers was
       C majorC  G+G  C majorC  G+G
He gave her a story 'bout life
          A minorAm          Fmaj7Fmaj7
With a glint in his eye and a corner of a smile
   C majorC   G+G        C*
One conversation, a simple moment
   Cmaj7Cmaj7   A minorAm       Fmaj7Fmaj7
The things that change us if we notice
 C majorC   G+G    C majorC  G+G
When we look up sometimes

Pre-Chorus:
     A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
They said I would never make it
     C majorC  G+G       C majorC G+G
But I was built to break the mold
     A minorAm          Fmaj7Fmaj7     C majorC G+G
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own


Chorus:
             A minorAm           FF
So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
C majorC   G+G          C*    Cmaj7Cmaj7
Single mothers waiting on a check to come
   A minorAm        Fmaj7Fmaj7
Young teachers, student doctors
      G+G               C*   Cmaj7Cmaj7
Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to run
A minorAm          Fmaj7Fmaj7
This goes out to the Underdog
G+G         C*    Cmaj7Cmaj7
Keep on keeping at what you love
    A minorAm        Fmaj7Fmaj7
You'll find that someday soon enough
     C majorC  G+G  C majorC  G+G
You will rise up, rise up, yeah

Post-Chorus:
 A minorAm  FF  C majorC G+G  C majorC G+G
Ooh, ooh, ooh
 A minorAm  FF  C majorC G+G  C majorC G+G
Ooh, ooh, ooh


Verse 2:
         A minorAm        Fmaj7Fmaj7
She's riding in a taxi back to the kitchen
    C majorC    G+G             C majorC    G+G
Talking to the driver 'bout his wife and his children
         A minorAm              Fmaj7Fmaj7
On the run from a country where they put you in prison
    C majorC   G+G
For being a woman and speaking your mind
         A minorAm            Fmaj7Fmaj7
She looked in his eyes in the mirror and he smiled
   C majorC   G+G        C majorC    G+G
One conversation, a single moment
        A minorAm       Fmaj7Fmaj7
The things that change us if we notice
    C majorC    G+G
When we look up sometimes


Pre-Chorus:
     A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
They said I would never make it
     C majorC  G+G       C majorC G+G
But I was built to break the mold
     A minorAm          Fmaj7Fmaj7     C majorC G+G
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own
