D                                   A
I got a pretty face and I guess it’s okay but

   E              A
I Wanna Be Tall.

D                              C#
My friend Paul plays basketball—

Bm                          A
He makes it look so easy.

D                                   C#m 
He’s gotta be at least a million feet tall

      B                                E
He bends down to look at me.


I Wanna Be Tall…I don’t wanna be small.
I can stand on my hands and it’s nice that I can but
I Wanna Be Tall.


Playing my piano I feel so tall
I guess I’m pretty good.
Paul wants me to teach him this fall—
I think I really could.


Mom says we’re all kinda special—
As different as can be,
It shouldn’t matter ‘bout the height of my head when it comes to being me…


I don’t have to be tall.
It’s okay to be small.
I don’t need to be as tall as the trees—
I don’t have to be tall.
I don’t need to be tall.
