Bb Dm C (x2)
Verse
Bb Dm
I thought I would know better
C
That's wishful thinkin?
Bb Dm
Thought there'd be no pressure
C
That's wishful drinkin?
Bb Dm C
Is anything forever or just a feeling?
Gm
What have I been so afraid of?
Bb C
I don't know
verse 1
Bb Dm
From Brooklyn to New York, then off to the West
C
In Cali, no Khaled, but fuck, we the best
Bb Dm
My stripes, stay American, lemme express
C
And I keep it as live as a Total Request
Bb
Then they ask me these questions
Dm C
Like, 'How do you do it?
Press and the road and the music?
Gm
Truth is, I'm always up, I'm always down
Bb C
Worry about everyone else
Bb Dm C
But once in a while, I catch myself
Bb Dm C
Once in a while, I ask myself
What am I doing?
Bb Dm C
Once in a while, I need your help
Gm
But once in a while I feel like
Bb C
I just wanna dance
Bb Dm C
I feel good,
Bb Dm C
(I feel good)
Bb Dm C
I feel good,
Gm Bb C
I feel good
verse 2
Bb Dm
I live life like my blood type, B positive
C
These days something got me feeling quite the opposite
Bb Dm
Music like my heroin, but all I hear is poppy shit
C
Time to get up off of it and watch somebody copy it
Bb
I'm West bound down and out
C
Feeling fake now like somebody found me out
Gm
Need to slow down, I'm brownin' out
F
So many thoughts, lemme drown 'em out
Pre-Chorus
Bb Dm
I thought I would know better
C
That's wishful thinkin?
Bb Dm
Thought there'd be no pressure
C
That's wishful drinkin?
Bb Dm C
Is anything forever or just a feeling?
Gm
What have I been so afraid of?
Bb C
I don't know
Bb Dm C
But once in a while, I catch myself
Bb Dm C
Once in a while, I ask myself
What am I doing?
Bb Dm C
Once in a while, I need your help
Gm
But once in a while I feel like
Bb C
I just wanna dance
Bb Dm C
I feel good,
Bb Dm C
(I feel good)
Bb Dm C
I feel good,
Gm Bb C
I feel good.
verse 3
Bb
I've been looking at where we're going
Dm
There's no slowin' down to go back
C
And thinking of where we've been
No one's ever been given a road map
Bb Dm
Say 'Slow down, turn here, graduate and work here
C
Come and get a raise when you finish up your first year'
Bb Dm
No, if you're doing it, you're doing it right
C
Keep it movin', now tell me what you're doing tonight
Gm
Cause sometimes we're up, sometimes we're down
Bb C
Don't worry about anyone else
Bb Dm C
But once in a while, I catch myself
Bb Dm C
Once in a while, I ask myself
What am I doing?
Bb Dm C
Once in a while, I need your help
Gm
But once in a while I feel like
Bb C
I just wanna dance
Bb Dm C
I feel good,
Bb Dm C
(I feel good)
Bb Dm C
I feel good,
Gm Bb C
I feel good.
