Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I'm nothing special in fact I'm a bit of a bore

  + /9-

If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before

 But I have a talent, a wonderful thing, 'cause

Ev'ryone listens when I start to sing

  /5+

I'm so grateful and proud

 All I want is to sing it out loud.

Chorus

So I say thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy they're bringing

Who can live without it?

 I ask in all honesty, what would life be

 Without song or dance, what are we? second chorus:( )

 So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk

  + /9-

She says I began to sing long before I could talk

  /5+

And I’ve often wondered, how did it all start

 Who found out that nothing could capture her heart

 Like a melody can

 Well whoever it was, I’m a fan

Chorus

I've been so lucky I am the girl with golden hair

 I wanna sing it out to ev'rybody

/ /5+

What a joy, what a life, what a chance

Chorus

 So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me

 So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
