DI'm on a stage right now
G DAnd it's wild that it's me they're here to listen to
A GAnd not some other fool
DYou're back in my hometown
G AI've been meaning to call you up and ask what you've been doing
GI bet cleaning out the pool
G DYou believed in me when no one did
A BmYou'll always have a part of this
G D ADeep down I'm just a little kid hoping I make you proud
Chorus
DI've been standing on your shoulders
A For my whole life
BmWasn't 'til I started getting older
GThat I started realizing
DAll the ways you made a way for me
AAnd things you sacrificed
Bm GI'm up here 'cause I've been standing on your shoulders
DFor my whole life
Post-Chorus
A Bm G My whole life .

Bm A DIt shouldn't be this hard
G D ATo tell someone the part they played in making you
GGuess that's why we never do
Bm A DSo I wrote this down
G D AIt ain't half of what I'd really like to say to you
GBut it'll have to do
DYou had a quiet steady confidence
A D/F#You said it without saying it
G D ADays and years and brick-by-brick you said I made you proud
Chorus
DI've been standing on your shoulders
A For my whole life
BmWasn't 'til I started getting older
GThat I started realizing
DAll the ways you made a way for me
AAnd things you sacrificed
Bm GI'm up here 'cause I've been standing on your shoulders
DFor my whole life
Post-Chorus
A Bm My whole life
G D A Bm GI've been standing on your shoulders my whole life .
