Never Shout Never – On The Brightside (Ukulele)

Am                       E
I met a man of two feet tall

         Cadd9
This man was quite ambitious

        F             Fm            Am
In a world that is so vicious to us all

        E          Cadd9
I said, "Hi," as he replied

                           F                G               C
He said listen to these words that I have lived by my whole life

                Am                            F
"You're only as tall as your heart will let you be,

                    G                                C
And you're only as small as the world will make you seem

                        Am                                 F
And when the goin' gets rough, and you feel like you may fall

                   G                                     Am
Just look on the bright side, you're roughly six feet tall."

Am                       E
I met a man of twelve feet tall

       Cadd9
He towered like a giant

        F             Fm            Am
In a world that was defiant of his height

        E          Cadd9
I said, "Hi," as he replied

                           F                G               C
He said listen to these words that I have dreaded my whole life

                Am                            F
"You're only as tall as your heart will let you be,

                    G                                C
And you're only as small as the world will make you seem

                        Am                                 F
And when the goin' gets rough, and you feel like you may fall

                   G                                     Am
Just look on the bright side, you're roughly six feet tall."

Am                       E
I am a man of six feet tall

       Cadd9
Just lookin' for some answers

        F                Fm            Am
In a world that answers none of them at all

            E         Cadd9
I'll say, "Hi," but not reply

                           F              G                  C
To the letters that you write because I found some peace of mind

                   Am                           F
Cause I'm only as tall as my heart will let me be,

                  G                              C
And I'm only as small as the world will make me seem

                        Am                             F
And when the goin' gets rough, and I feel like I may fall

                   G                                  C
I'll look on the bright side, I'm roughly six feet tall.
