I remember when I was thirteen 
                                                      C
I saw a picture on my T.V. screen 
                       F                                       C   Bb
The Reverend Billy Graham and the people singing "Just As I Am" 
                                      C
And it felt like You were talking to me 
             F                                            C    Bb
And the whole world seemed to fade away 
                                       C                   F        
C      Bb
Until I heard my mother say "Son, are you okay? Do you wanna pray?" 
                                                 C
And that became the hour I first believed


(Big Band Sound)
                        F                      C    Bb
Next thing you know I'm high and flyin' 
C                      F
Next thing you know 
                   C          Bb     C
My heart is in your hands 

Next thing you know 
F                     C    Bb   C
There's no denyin' 
                        F                      C   Bb     C
Next thing you know I'm a brand new man


F      (Low)                                         C      Bb
Well, I wish I could say I always stayed right there 
                                             C
And I did until my freshman year 
             F                                             C     Bb
But the world was pulling me a long way from thirteen 
                       C
And you were calling but I didn't hear 
         F                                          C       Bb
Still I knew there was something more So, 
                                                    C
one day my knees hit the dorm room floor 
                    F                                 C  Bb
I said, "If you're there, and if you really care, 
                         C
Come and talk to me like I was thirteen."

               F                                            C   Bb
I see the people there, so I pull up a chair 
                                                       C
And their stories, they blow me away 
             F                                  C   Bb
'Cause I can see it on every face

Everybody's got their own thirteen
