[B] [F#]
[B] [F#]
[D#m] [B] [F#]
I'm not the best at most of the things I try and do.
I make a mess out of most things, but [D#m] yes it's true.
But I sit down to the top before I get to ride it down.
And I don't raise a deal about the things that I've done [F#] and found.
Cause I'm just a man, but I'm an, got a lot to lose.
Got a lot of choice to make, but not a whole lot of [D#m] choice to choose.
Do I accept my fate or do I go and refuse?
Got the false to state and I gots to [G#m] state the truth.
And that's the problem, but there ain't no right or [B] wrong.
I say, one's about getting ahead, the other's about [F#] getting gone.
And I, well [D#m] I know, [B] we gonna make it, but we'll [F#] take it slow.
You never know what [D#m] you're gonna get.
You [B] say you live your life like a [F#] Russian roulette.
And I know, I know, well [D#m] I know, [B] you can't believe your life.
[F#] Long run, and my dad would tell me, [D#m] listen my son, do [B] what I say, don't do [F#] what I've done.
But I ain't calling for no outs or immunities.
I got my problems, but I'm solving them when I'm [D#m] in this.
Cause I find no things or nothing, said my future wife.
So I told her everything else must cost me more than my [F#] life.
But I know, well that's just the way it goes.
And I know, the way it goes is the way it [D#m] goes.
And I know, if I don't make it, there'll be a good reason.
But if I'm sick here by next year, I'm just getting up and I'm [G#m] leaving cause,
that's the problem, there ain't no right or [B] wrong.
I say, one's about getting ahead, the other's about [F#] getting gone.
[D#m] It's a [B] choice if you're stubborn, [F#] but it [D#m] ain't one [B] if there's no [F#] use.
Gotta [D#m] climb to the [B] very, very top.
[F#] [D#m] If you want [B] the best of the views, [Bm] and it's true.
Cause I [F#] know, and I know, well [D#m] I know, [B] we gonna make it, but we'll [F#] take it slow.
You never know what [D#m] you're gonna get, yeah.
[B] Say you live your life like a [F#] Russian roulette, well I know, I know, [D#m] I know.
[B] You can't believe your life will [F#] never run.
My name will tell me, [D#m] listen my son, do [B] what I say, don't do [F#] what I've done.
What I've done.
