(verse)
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


(chorus)
            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


(chorus)
            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
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



(chorus)
            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
            Bm
Thats who I am
            G    A
Thats all I have
            D  G  D,   D
Thats who I am
