Intro: 4 bars (key of C, 6/8)

They defy our expectations.
Amaze us with their deeds.
They overcome limitations
Achieve historic things.

They display great courage.
Saving others’ lives.
Show selfless devotion.
Mere word can’t define.

Sometimes, yes, Sometimes,
Ordinary people
Do extraordinary things.

They’ve been told that they’re nobody.
Been told that they will fail.
But they hang on they persevere.
Stay strong and they prevail.

They display great courage.
Saving others’ lives.
Show selfless devotion.
Mere word can’t define.

Sometimes, yes, Sometimes,
Ordinary people
Do extraordinary things.

Only time can see the future.
Only time can judge our deeds.

Instrumental: 8 bars
