“Write and write and keep on writing….” is counted as a verse. 
[Verse 1]
There Dwas a time in Amy life that I Gfelt so all aDlone
That I Dnever thought that Asomeday I would Ghave a happy Dhome
A Dfamily and a Afour track radiGo shack microDphone
A Dbackyard and a Ahammock and a Gpaid off student Dloan
A Dbackyard and a Ahammock and a Gpaid off student Dloan
[Chorus 1]
So Dif Ayou Gsee Dme Gand AI'm DdreDaming
DA-About GsellDing Gsocks Aon De-DBay
DShake Ame Ghard Dtill GI'm Aa-DwakeD  
The Dstitches Awill unGraDvel, the Dstitches Awill unGraDvel
The Dstitches Awill unGravel Dif you Gknit with Afishing Dline
Though your Gcast will Abe reDfined, You'd be Gbetter Aoff with Dtwine
[Verse 2]
DWhen I was a Akid we would play GAnnie at reDcess
DI was always ASandy because GI was the smallDest
From all that Dcrawling on the Ablacktop there were Gholes in all my Djeans,
In the Dtoes of my boat Ashoes but I Gnever comDplained
Because DI didn't Athink that GI could Dsing
See I Dnever perfAected that Gnasally Dthing
When Dall the kids Asang in Gthe school Dplay
DNow I know it's Abetter if we Gdon't all sound the Dsame
DNow I know it's Abetter if we Gdon't all sound the Dsame
[Chorus 2]

And you don't Gneed to Abe the Ddog unless you Glike beAing the Ddoggy
[Verse 3]
He's Dup against a Ateam that he has Gnever seen Dbefore
And they Dmarch into the Aoutfield like they're Gmarching off to Dwar
It's a Dgood one out to Aright field but they're Gquick and make the Dplay
And Das the curtain Acloses he just Gbows and walks aDway
Singing, "DIf you're Abreathing Gyou are lDiving
And Dif you're Aliving Gyou are Dlearning
So Dwrite and Awrite and Gkeep on Dwriting
DJust make Asure your Glife's exDciting"
[Chorus 3]

Happy Home.

Other Verses and Bridges are the same.

“Write and write and keep on writing….” is counted as a verse.

[Verse 1]

D A G D

There was a time in my life that I felt so all alone

D A G D

That I never thought that someday I would have a happy home

D A G D

A family and a four track radio shack microphone

D A G D

A backyard and a hammock and a paid off student loan

D A G D

A backyard and a hammock and a paid off student loan

[Chorus 1]

D A G D G A D D

So if you see me and I'm dreaming

D A G D G A D D

A-bout selling socks on e-Bay

D A G D G A D D

Shake me hard till I'm a-wake

D A G D D A G D

The stitches will unravel, the stitches will unravel

D A G D G A D

The stitches will unravel if you knit with fishing line

G A D G A D

Though your cast will be refined, You'd be better off with twine

[Verse 2]

D A G D

When I was a kid we would play Annie at recess

D A G D

I was always Sandy because I was the smallest

D A G D

From all that crawling on the blacktop there were holes in all my jeans,

D A G D

In the toes of my boat shoes but I never complained

D A G D

Because I didn't think that I could sing

D A G D

See I never perfected that nasally thing

D A G D

When all the kids sang in the school play

D A G D

Now I know it's better if we don't all sound the same

D A G D

Now I know it's better if we don't all sound the same

[Chorus 2]

D A G D G A D D

So if you hear me and I'm screaming

D A G D G A D D

A-bout auditions for Annie

D A G D G A D D

I hope you will try out with me

D A G D G A D D

There are parts for e-v'rybody

G A D G A D

And you don't need to be the dog unless you like being the doggy

[Verse 3]

D A G D

He's up against a team that he has never seen before

D A G D

And they march into the outfield like they're marching off to war

D A G D

It's a good one out to right field but they're quick and make the play

D A G D

And as the curtain closes he just bows and walks away

D A G D

Singing, "If you're breathing you are living

D A G D

And if you're living you are learning

D A G D

So write and write and keep on writing

D A G D

Just make sure your life's exciting"

[Chorus 3]

D A G D G A D D

So if you see me and I've joined the roller derby

D A G D G A D D

Know that I've become something I always wanted to be

D A G D G A D

Fast and strong and part of a team

D A G D G A D

Teacher, thanks for every-thing

[Outro]

D A G D

You said "If you're breathing you are living

D A G D

If you're living you are learning

D A G D

So write and write and keep on writing

D A G D
