C                                     F
Mommy, Daddy come and look at me now
C                                     F
I'm a big man in a great big town
C                                     F
Years ago who would believe it's true
C                                     F
Goes to show what a little faith can do

Up-up-up-up

C                                     F
I drift away to another land
C                                     F
Sleeping dreaming such a simple thing
C                                     F
I think of things that I might be
C                                     F
I see my name go down in history

I got up
And you pulled me up
I stood up
And you pulled me up
I got up
And that was because you pulled me up
I got up
In a little while you pulled me up

|--CHORUS--|

C                                           F
I cast a shadow on the living room wall
C                                           F
Dark and savage with a profile so sharp
C                                           F
Keep that wonderful food on the table
C                                           F
There's really no hurry, I'll eat in a while
