                       Am6                     F7
6She was walking in the street, looked up and noticed
       G8                        G9
7He was nameless, he was homeless
                 Am10                     F11
8She asked him his name and told him what hers was
              G12
9He gave her a story 'bout life
                    Am13                    F14
10With a glint in his eye and a corner of a smile
           G15               C16       G17
11One conversation, a simple moment
                Am18              F19
12The things that change us if we notice
        G20
13When we look up sometimes

16[Pre-Chorus]
          Am21            F22
17They said I would never make it
          G23                  C24     G25
18But I was built to break the mold
         Am26                   F27             G28
19The only dream that I've been chasing is my own

22[Chorus]
                         Am29                      F30
23So I sing a song for the hustlers trading at the bus stop
       G31                    C32        G33
24Single mothers waiting on a check to come
      Am34                F35
25Young teachers, student doctors
            G36                             C37      G38
26Sons on the front line knowing they don't get to run
Am39                   F40
27This goes out to the Underdog
G41                  C42        G43
28Keep on keeping at what you love
       Am44                F45
29You'll find that someday soon enough
         G46
30You will rise up, rise up, yeah

               G59                                      G60
40Talking to the driver 'bout his wife and his children
                  Am61                            F62
41On the run from a country where they put you in prison
            G63
42For being a woman and speaking your mind
                  Am64                        F65
43She looked in his eyes in the mirror and he smiled
           G66               C67       G68
44One conversation, a single moment
                Am69              F70
