[Fm] [E] [Fm] [C]
[F]
I just got here day before yesterday
It won't be long [E] and I'll be on [D] my way
[F] These few [F#m] days that I'll be around
Please don't try to bring me down
[G#] [C#m] [C#]
I made [E] my [C#] entrance on [F] the Greyhound bus
I don't intend [F#] to [F] cause [D] a fuss
You [F] like my style, [E] that's fine with me
And if you don't, just let me [A] be
[Dm] [A] I don't claim to be so great
I'm no pace setter, no potentate
I got some kids, I got a wife
[D] I'm just trying to swing my way through life
[G] So [D] [C#] [F#m] don't [B] try to make [F] me what I'm [C#] not
I [E] just get by [D] with what I've [A#] got
Live, [E] let live, [B] that's my advice
If [F#] you got questions, ask me now

Of this town I [A] am not the toast
I'm getting older every day
I'm just [D] trying to swing a little in my way
[C#]
So don't try to make me what I'm not
I just get by [F#] with [D] what I've got
Live, [C#m] let live, [F#m] that's my advice
If you got questions, ask me now
