Intro

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B

Verse 1

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B x2
You, you try, you try to get by, you’re never going to pull it off, you shouldn't even try
You're a wet cigarette, you’re always second best, they're never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves
So you fight for them to realize, there's more to life, there's more to you, there's more than meets the eye
And when you're done, the battle's been won, you sit back, you smile, and this is what you hum, you hum

Chorus 1

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B
Whoa, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh

Verse 3

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B
(Years!) go by, the time it does fly, every single second is a moment in time,
that passes oh so quick, and it seems like nothing, but when you're looking back, well it amounts to everything
I've got myself, I've got my friends, I've got my little family, but that's not where it ends
This one goes out to you, it goes out to everyone, It's in the name of honesty because life has just begun

Chorus 3

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B
Whoa, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh

Verse 4

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B
Look around little brother can you tell me what you see? You're a big boy now, so take responsibility
you never had it hard, but now it's getting tough, so you (whine! whine! whine!) and you say you've had enough
You say I'm full of shit, that I'm a hypocrite, I shouldn't talk when I can't take the advice that I give
Well maybe you're right, but open your eyes: the main difference here is that I (try! try! try!)

Chorus 4

C – – C G/B Am – – Am G F – – F C G – – G G/B x2
Whoa, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
