[Eb] [Bbm] I'm so excited because I'm gonna go to the High School of Performing Arts.
I mean, I was [Eb] dying to be a serious actress.
Anyway, it's the first day of acting [Bbm] class and we're in the auditorium
and the teacher, [C] Mr.
Clark, puts us up on the [Ab] stage with our legs around [Eb] everybody,
one in back of the other, and he says,
Okay, we're gonna do improvisations.
Now, you're on a [Bb] bobsled and it's snowing out and it's [Ebm] cold.
Okay, [Eb] go.
Every day for a week we would [Bb] try to feel [Bbm] the motion,
[Ab]
[F] feel the motion [Eb] down [Bb] the hill.
[Eb] Every day for a week we would [Bb] try to hear [Bbm] the wind rush,
[Ab] hear [Abm] the wind rush, [Eb] feel the chill.
[Bb] And I dug right down to the bottom [Eb] of my soul [Ab] to see what I [Bb] had in [Eb] me.
Yes, I dug [Bb] right down to the [Cm] bottom of my soul and I [F] cried.

[Bb] [Abm]
[Bb] [F] And I said, nothing.
[Gb] I'm [G] feeling nothing.
[E] I [Fm] could get [D] a [Eb] girlfriend.
[Gbm] They all [Ab] felt something.
[Bb] But I [G] felt
[C] except [Fm] the feeling that [Bb] this bullshit was [Eb] absurd.
But I said to myself, hey, it's only the [Ab] first.
Maybe it's [Fm] genetic.
They don't have bobsleds in San Juan.
[Eb] Second week, more advanced than [Bb] we had to be.
[Bbm] A [Ab] table, be a [Abm] sports car, [Eb] ice [Ab] cream [Bb] cone.
[Eb] Just a carp, he would say, very [Bb] good, except [Bbm] Morales.
[Ab] Try [Abm] Morales [Eb] all alone.
[Ab] And I [Bb] dug right down to [Eb] the bottom of my soul to see [Bb] how an ice cream.
[Cm] [Ab] Yes, I dug [Bb] right down to the bottom [Cm] of my soul and I tried.
[F] [Ab] [Bb] The kids [Abm] yelled nothing.
[Bb] They called me [Bbm] nothing.
[C] [Fm] And carp allowed it, which really makes [Cm] [Eb] them.
[Gbm] They were [Fm] so helpful.
[Bb] They called [G] me hopeless [C] until [F] I really [Bb] didn't know where else [Eb] to turn.
And [Ab] carp kept [Eb] saying, Morales, I think you should [Ab] transfer to girls high.
You'll [F] never be an [Ab] actress, never.
