You know there’s a light pect that glows by the front door.

Don’t Don’t for (Gm7)get the key’s un der the mat.

Bit ter ness When (Eb)child hood stars shine, in’.

Go to church f’rence be ’cause your ma in’ ma says to,

vis it (Gm7)Grand pa ev ’ry chance that you you can.

“I love you” It won’t (Eb)be wast up ed time.

line, so Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Hold the door, say please, say thank you.

Don’t (Gm)steal, don’t cheat and don’t lie.

I know you got (Eb)moun tains to climb, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

When the dreams you’re dream in’ come to you,

when the (Gm)work you put in is real ized,

let your (Eb)self feel the pride, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Don’t ex pect a free ride from no one.

Don’t hold a (Gm7)grudge or a chip, and here’s why:

Bit ter ness When (Eb)keeps you from fly in’.

Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Know the dif f’rence be tween your sleep in’ with some one

vis and (Gm7)sleep in’ with ’ry some one you you love.

“I love you” It ain’t (Eb)no pick up ed time.

line, so al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Hold the door, say please, say thank you.

Don’t (Gm)steal, don’t cheat and don’t lie.

I know you got (Eb)moun tains to climb, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

When the dreams you’re dream in’ come to you,

when the (Gm)work you put in is real ized,

let your (Eb)self feel the pride, but al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Don’t ex (Bb)kind.

When it’s hot, eat a root beer pop si cle, shut off the A (Gm)C and roll the win dows down.

Let that (Ebmaj7)sum mer sun shine.

Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.

Don’t take for grant ed the love this life gives you.

When you get where you’re (Gm)go in’, don’t for get, turn back a round.

Help the (Ebmaj7)next one in line.

Al ways stay hum ble and (Bb)kind.
