E        B           C#m
I've got money in my pocket
           A               E
I like the color of my hair
     B                C#m
I've got a friend who loves me
            A               E
Got a house, I've got a car
           B            C#m
I've got a good mother
        A                      E
and her voice is what keeps me here

        B
Feet on ground
         C#m
Heart in hand
       A
Facing forward

Be yourself
E   B  C#m                   A
I,         I've never wanted anything
   E        B    C#m                   A
No I've, no I've,    I've never wanted anything
E      B   C#m  A
so bad...       so bad

E         B                C#m
Cardboard masks of all the people
         A
I've been
E               B               C#m
thrown out with all the rusted, tangled
       A                   E
dented God Damned miseries
          B               C#m
You could say I'm hard to hold
           A
But if you knew me you'd know
E       B              C#m
I've got a good father
        A                         E
And his strength is what makes me cry

        B
Feet on ground
         C#m
Heart in hand
       A
Facing forward

Be yourself
E   B  C#m                   A
I,         I've never wanted anything
   E        B    C#m                   A
No I've, no I've,    I've never wanted anything
E      B   C#m  A
so bad...       so bad
