Am C         G                Am
There is no question that the fortune
                   C G Am
is in store for you
   C      G           Am                        C G
I see success, I see growth in everything you do
Am    C     G                 Am
The shadow passing leaves you boneless
                     C G
leaving me in your eye
Am C       G             Am
Giving you in has spot a ton of secrets
             C G
in your throne

You are the sea, you are the star,
you'll have a special hill
You'll find a smile at a time
with everything you do
Give me your shorts, give me a light,
give me a little kid

Well here we are now, tell it to me like it is
Here we are now, tell it to me like it is
Here we are now, tell it to me like it is
