[Verse 1]
I was small in your old blue shirt
Hands on your head, heart on the road
One little world on your shoulders
You carried me through the whole crowd
[Pre-Chorus]
And I could see
Over every face
Just because of you
I found my place
[Chorus]
High on your shoulders
High on your shoulders
I saw it all
I saw it all
High on your shoulders
High on your shoulders
You made me tall
You made me tall
[Verse 2]
Now I walk where you once walked
Same worn boots on a different day
But when the noise gets too heavy
I hear your steady voice say
[Pre-Chorus]
Lift your eyes
Don’t look down
There’s more ahead
Than what’s around
[Chorus]
High on your shoulders
High on your shoulders
I saw it all
I saw it all
High on your shoulders
High on your shoulders
You made me tall
You made me tall
[Bridge]
If I reach a little farther
It’s your hands still holding mine
Every step I take from here
Carries your light
[Final Chorus]
High on your shoulders
High on your shoulders
I saw it all
I saw it all
High on your shoulders
High on your shoulders
You made me tall
You made me tall
[Outro]
I see further now
Because of you
