Verse 1
(C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) When my
(G major) mother still was (C major) young,
her (F major) father died from
(C major) too much wine.
(F major) His parents both were hunted
in the (C major) jungle.
She moved into the city in her twenties,
(F major) met (C major) my father, he cour (D major) ted her,
they fell in love (G major) an d married.
On (C major) a Tuesday, April morning,
his brilliant (F major) brain
(C major) stopped working.
(F major) My brother's mom and I
all sat (A minor) around crying,
when (C major) it occurred (F major) to me
that I'd do well (C major) to lead our little pride,
and so I (G major) tried to find my roar and be a (C major) li on.
I (F major) always show my teeth when I am smiling,
(C major) (G major) I only say I love you when I'm (C major) sure.
In (F major) side my gentle paws,
I've (C major) got some devastating claws
(A minor) And (G major) I'm learning what
it means to really (C major) roar
To protect them from the storm,
keep them safe (F major) and keep (C major) them warm
Mu (F major) sic was the (A minor) fire that (C major) I shared
It (G major) taught (C major) me when in fear
to be open (F major) and sincere
(C major) Be (D major) cause sometimes being
brave is (G major) being scared
And at the risk (C major) of getting burned,
I (F major) tried to guide the pride
to (C major) learn to find their (F major) own ideas
of fire and fan the (A minor) flame
with (F major) other stuff to do and see they
(C major) left the music all to me
(G major) the things that made us lions
were (C major) not the same and (F major) i always
show my teeth when i am (C major) smiling
i (G major) only say i love you when i'm sure
(C major) inside (F major) my gentle paws
i've (C major) got some devastating (A minor) claws
an (G major) d i'm learning what it means to
Really (C major) roar
When all the cubs grew up
and we were spread (F major) around (C major) the earth
I (F major) found one day that I'd grown (C major) very sick
My bones were filled with holes
My (A minor) belly hung (C major) in rolls and (D major) I was bald
or once my mane was (G major) thick.
I slept (C major) an d was ashamed I (F major) was quiet.
I (C major) was tamed then they came (F major) and stayed
and helped me heal (A minor) in side
Though (F major) I had to learn once more
to be a lion (C major) without a roar
It's not (G major) the roar that makes the lion,
it's the pride (C major)
I (F major) always show my teeth when I am (C major) smiling
I (G major) only say I love you when I'm (C major) sure
(F major) Inside my gentle paws
I've got some (E major) devastating
(A minor) claws
And I'm learn (D major) ing what
(G major) it means to really (C major) roar
(G major) I (F major) always show my teeth when
I am (C major) smiling,
(G major) I always say I love you when (C major) I'm sure.
(F major) In side my gentle paws
I've (E major) got some devastating claws,
(A minor) An (D major) d I'm learning,
(G major) learning what it means to really (C major) roar.
