My Story (Live)

Come on close
I wanna start the show up by telling you
A little bit about myself
Bout my story
Gray hairs are the ribbons
For a game of life well played
And the wrinkles are trophies
For the progress that I have made
Any good that Ive done so far
Was probably just a mistake
And if theyre giving now credits
For foolish hearts
Thats credit Id gladly take
I can count all the people
I call best friends on one hand
Being someone people count on
Thats how I became the man
This is my story
The life that I have found
This is my story
Its full of ups and downs
Its a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow
But thanks to those
Who laid the road before me
Laid the road
So I could tell my story
Every tree that ever grew
Knew just which way to grow
And every bird that ever flew
Knew just which way to go
I can count all the people
I call best friends on one hand
Being someone people count on
Well thats how I became the man
Time is the bridge we cross
To help us on our way
Reminds us who we used to be
And where we are today
This is my story
The life that I have found
This is my story
Its full of ups and downs
Its a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow
Thanks to those
Who paved the way before me
And laid the road
So I could tell my story
Well time is the bridge we cross
To helpus on our way
Reminds us who we used to be
And where we are today
This is my story
A life that I have found
This is my story
Its full of ups and downs
Its a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow
This is my story
Yes it is, yes it is
Its my story
Its full of ups and downs
Its a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow
Its my story, hey, hey
My story, hey, yeah
A true story, hey, yeah
Thanks to those
Who paved the way before me
And laid the road
So I could tell my story
