     C              FMaj7          G             
    E7

When I was born and taken home all snuggled close
and warm

  Am             Dm                  Dsus4       
 G

I didn't know at all that there were defects in
my form

    C                  Dm                 E7     
         Am 

The years and all they brought to me have left
their marks behind

       Dm          C                 G           
     C 

But if someone can love me still I'm sure that I
won't mind



      Dm        C            E7              Am  
   

I can only wish someone will know just how I
feel

    F                C              G            
  C 

And love me when I'm shabby, quite enough to make
me real





I've often heard the stories of the ones that
love made real

And often I have thought that I would someday
learn to feel

I sit here only watching at the borders of my
life

And the fear of never being loved has pierced me
like a knife



I can only wish someone will know just how I
feel

And love me when I'm shabby, quite enough to make
me real





Now someone special in my life has made my wish
occur

In spite of my misshapen form and shabby worn-out
fur

I know that I am loved each time I see that
someone's eyes

They tell me I am real in ways that nothing can
disguise



And I have got my wish for someone who knows just
how I feel

He's loved me, though I'm shabby, quite enough to
make me real





Now all you ladies worried 'cause your shape is
not quite true

And all you men with loved-off fur and scalp
that's showing through

And all you minds with failing seams and fear
where all can see

Take heart from this true lesson from a worn-out
shabby me



And I can only hope that someone will know just
how you feel

And love you, though you're shabby, quite enough
to make you real
