G
I wanna thank you world for lettin me belong

    C                                Am
I'm just 1/4 of one small group that sings your songs

  G                                   C
I know that there are others who have served in bigger ways

    Am                          D
All I can do is sing your music all my days

   G
It makes me grateful just to know to know that I can be

C                       Am
Unique and fill a spot beside the other three

    G                G/F#            Em
Without a place here in this world I know that I'd be lost

C                                D7             G
Thank you world for lettin me contribute to the cause
(Repeat Intro 2x)
G
I may not ever stand like Stonewall Jackson stood

    C                              Am
But standin on that stage to me is just as good

    G                C
Now I may never be a heavy or a break

    Am                                           D
But you've given me the strength the strength to pull my way

   G
Oh for the part I sing is truly part of me

    C                                  Am
and it does its part to lock the other parts in key

       G                G/F#           Em
and it does its part to cool cool that sweet a pose

C                                D7             G
Thank you world for lettin me contribute to the cause
(Repeat Intro 1/2 step higher 2x)
Ab
Oh world youve given me a place that I call mine

           Db                    Bbm
Though Ive stepped out of it and Ive gotten out of line

    Ab                       Db
Sometimes I sing the music slightly out of key

    Bbm                     Eb

Ab
