Cm Eb     Ab Bb Cm Ab     Bbsus4 Bb    
■  Oohooh ■  ■  ■  oohooh ■      oohooh
Bb                  
Oohooh oohooh oohooh
                       Eb    
She was walking in the street
              Ab     
Looked up and noticed
       Bb      
He was nameless
Bb             
He was homeless
                  Eb  
She asked him his name
                  Cm      
And told him what hers was
              Bb              
He gave her a story 'bout life
                Cm     
With a glint in his eye
                  Ab   
And a corner of a smile
    Bb                          
One conversation a simple moment
                Eb        Cm    Ab    
The things that change us if we notice
        Bb      Bb7       Bb
When we look up sometimes ■ 


[Chorus]
          Cm                   
They said I would never make it
      Eb                     Bb  
But I was built to break the mold
         Eb                   Ab            Bb 
The only dream that I've been chasing is my own
Bb7                  Cm          
So I sing a song for the hustlers
               Ab      
Trading at the bus stop
Bb            
Single mothers
           Eb             
Waiting on a check to come

Knowing they don't get to run
Cm               Ab          
This goes out to the underdog
Bb              Eb              
Keep on keeping at what you love
           Cm                Ab

Who was risking a life

To give us a love
           Bb           
And get it right on time
              Eb      
She looked in his eyes
                     Ab    
In the mirror and he smiled
    Bb                    Eb    
One conversation a simple moment
                                Ab
