Verse 1

Gsus2Gsus2
I don’t mind if you’ve got something nice to say about me
Gsus2Gsus2 D/F#D/F#    A/C#A/C#     B minorBm
I enjoy an accolade like the rest
Gsus2Gsus2      D/F#D/F#       Bbdim7Bbdim7      B minorBm
if you could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
       E/Ab     Edim/G      D/F#D/F#      Ddim/F
with all the who’s who and so and so’s that used to be the best
  E minor 7Em7            A augmentedA       Gsus2Gsus2 - D MajorD - Gsus2Gsus2 - D MajorD
at such and such ...it wouldn’t matter much
Gsus2Gsus2  D MajorD       Gsus2Gsus2
I won’t lie it feels alright to see your name in lights
Gsus2Gsus2  D/F#D/F#      A/C#A/C#     B minorBm
we all need an atta boy or atta girl
Gsus2Gsus2   D/F#D/F#    Bbdim7Bbdim7      B minorBm
in the end I’d like to hang my hat on more besides
  E/Ab            G+G
the temporary trappings of this world

CHORUS:
         D MajorD
I wanna leave a legacy
         A/C#A/C#
How will they remember me
       B minorBm
Did I choose to love
   G+G               D MajorD
Did I point to you enough to make a mark on things
          Bbdim7Bbdim7  B minorBm
I want to leave an offering
      G+G          D/F#D/F#           E minorEm    A augmentedA
A majorA child of mercy and grace who blessed your name unapologetically
               Gsus2Gsus2 - D MajorD - Gsus2Gsus2 - D MajorD
And leave that kind of legacy

Verse 2

Gsus2Gsus2  D MajorD         G+G    D MajorD
I don’t have to look too far or too long awhile
Gsus2Gsus2   D MajorD         A/C#A/C#    B minorBm
To make a lengthy list of all that I enjoy.
Gsus2Gsus2  D/F#D/F#     Bbdim7Bbdim7      B minorBm
It’s an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
   E/Ab      Edim/G        D/F#D/F#      G+G
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy.

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Bb majorBb         G minorGm     F/AF/A
Not well-traveled not well-read
Bb majorBb            G minorGm  F/AF/A
Not well to do or well-bred
C majorC         A minorAm    G/BG/B
I just want to hear instead
      C majorC      A minorAm   G/BG/B    D MajorD A/C#A/C# B minorBm G+G
¨Well done,¨ good and faithful one!
