D                 G              D 
Grew up in LA and I like to play baseball 
    D                  G                   A 
I'm five years old and I don't have hardly anything at all 
            Bm                   A   
Except this little blue hat that goes with the bat 
        G                 D         G      A 
That my Momma gave me the very last time I saw her 
  D                      G               D 
I live with a family and they don't even know I'm there 
      D                 G                    A  
I can go for a walk ten city blocks and they don't even care 
       Bm                    A  
I have imaginary friends who I pretend  
      G                       D 
Would play baseball 'till the very end 
G                   A 
Of the day, aww but thats ok 


            G  
Thats who I am 
            D 
Thats all I have 
              A  
Thats where I stand 
                    Bm 
And thats where I'm at 
                 G     A  
Well thats all I have 
            D 
Thats who I am 



(Verse) 
D                   G                  D 
Moved in with a new family that had an older son 
   D                             G 
He became my big brother we were best friends with each other 
   A 
We played ball till the setting sun 
        Bm 
Then he had to go to war 
      A 
And I didn't know what for 
  G  
I asked him not to go 
      D 
As he walked out the door 
   G               A 
He said to me oh I have to leave 

            G  
Thats who I am 
            D 
Thats all I have 
              A  
Thats where I stand 
                    Bm 
And thats where I'm at 
                 G     A  
Well thats all I have 
            D 
Thats who I am

  D                  G            D 
A year went by and I tried not to think of him at all 
                       G 
But on Christmas Eve I started to believe 
            A 
There was a knock at my bedroom door 
            Bm             A 
He said I'm not going back to Iraq 
      G                        D 
And I want you to know exactly where I'm at 
      G                    A  
Cause theres no other like me big brother 



            G  
Thats who I am 
            D 
Thats all I have 
              A  
Thats where I stand 
                    Bm 
And thats where I'm at 
                G     A  
And thats all I have
