I have composed a melody for this lyric by Carroll Kiphen. Listen to it: my voice + ukulele https://app.box.com/s/matkgozvu45d39ktu5gxbinw8b2vcy5bOrdinary People +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ © Lyrics: Carroll Kiphen, 2019. © Melody: Guy E. Trepanier, 2019.
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
They defy our expectations. Amaze us with their deeds. They overcome limitations Achieve historic things.

Hi Guy Love he chorus - this should be in an animated movie IMO. There are a few prosody issues in the verses lyrics - I'm guessing you wrote lyrics first on this one. But it's a charming little ditty and your voice and uke sound good together. Paul

"When will we all, as artists, creators and facilitators learn that the so-called experts in our lives are nothing more than someone who has stepped forward and called themselves an expert?" –Brian Austin Whitney
