Bb F G C
[Verse 1]
F A
Big shot, yes you are
Dm F
Big dreams got you this far
Bb F G C7
Never let the small stuff slow you down
F A7
Time wasted's money spent
Dm F
Fun is for retirement
Bb F G C7
There's no time to think about that now
Dm A7
But even though you're running late
Dm7 G7
Your two-year-old wants patty cake
Bb F
And if you'll stop to play
Bb F
It just might make your day
G
All the joy you've missed
C A7
Comes in moments just like this
[Chorus]
Dm A7
Let the ordinary make you happy
Dm C F
Let the little things cheer your heart
Bb F
When the search for something special
Em A7
Makes you miss the things that are
Dm A7
Let the ordinary make you happy
Dm G
Be amazed by this life we live
Dm F Bb
And you'll start to see each day
F
As the gift it is
[Verse 2]
F A
Browsing fancy stores
Dm F
All you need is just one more
Bb F G C
Something to make others envy you
F A7
But parts and warrantees
Dm F
Storage and accessories
Bb F G C
Make you wonder who is buying who
Dm A7
And all this trouble's such a waste
Dm7 G7
Of this lovely summer's day
Bb F
Brought to you for free
Bb
With everything you need
G G7
Take the money you have saved
C A7
Buy a stranger lemonade
[Chorus]
Dm A7
Let the ordinary make you happy
Dm C F
Let the little things cheer your heart
Bb F
When the search for something special
Em A7
Makes you miss the things that are
Dm A7
Let the ordinary make you happy
Dm G
Be amazed by this life we live
Dm F Bb
And you'll start to see each day
D G C F Bb Eb G
As the gift it is

[Verse 3]
F A
Rich kid on a plane
Dm F
Used to being entertained
Bb F G C
There's no Playstation at this altitude
F A
Making matters worse
Dm F
An old grandmother and her nurse
Bb F G C
Sit down in the seats right next to you
Dm A7
She says she hasn't flown in years
Dm7 G7
And talking sometimes calms her fears
Bb F
And to your great surprise
Bb F
Her story's quite a ride
G G7
And before the journey ends
C A7
You've somehow made a friend
[Chorus]
Dm A7
Let the ordinary make you happy
Dm C F
Let the little things cheer your heart
Bb F
When the search for something special
Em A7
Makes you miss the things that are
Dm A7
Let the ordinary make you happy
Dm G
Be amazed by this life we live
Dm F Bb
And you'll start to see each day
F
As the gift it is
