Lyrics

When (C)ev er I feel a (C9)fraid I (F)hold my head e rect and (G7)whis tle a hap py (G)tune, so (C)no one will sus pect (G7)I’m a (C)fraid.

While shiv er ing in my (C9)shoes, I (F)strike a care less pose and (G7)whis tle a hap py (G)tune and (C)no one ev er (G7)knows I’m a (C)fraid.

The re (Ab)sult of this de cep tion is (C)ver y strange to tell, for (G7)when I fool the (Gm6)peo ple I fear, I (D9)fool my self as (G7)well!

I I’m (G7)not a (C)fraid.

(F)Make be lieve you’re brave and the (C)trick will take you far.

(F)You may be as brave as you (C)make be lieve you are.

(F)(Whistle)

(D7)You may be as brave

as you make be (G7)lieve you (C)are.
