C
It�s hard to be living
Fmaj7
You gotta play the cards you were given
Am
You think it�s simple, but it goddam* isn�t
G
It�s tougher now than breaking out of Shawshank prison
C
And as you�re hittin your prime
Fmaj7
People say you been committing a crime
Am
But I won�t quit till I�m home
G
I�ll chip the limestone a bit at a time
C  slap mute
Wait! I�m a pale ass pale 
Fmaj7
Middle-class straight white male
Am
I won�t have an alibi the day I fail
G
Cause if I ever went to jail, Mom would pay my bail
C
In a (boom-boom) heartbeat
Fmaj7                                        Am
Mom and Dad have given me a lot more than a pat on the back
Am
And I gotta thank �em for loving me
            G
From the moment I was strapped in a Volvo car seat
C
When I needed a pep talk
Fmaj7
I couldn�t remember to wreck shop
Am
Writer�s block, staring at my laptop desktop
G
Or sleeping in my rental in a turnpike rest stop
C
Shi* in storage, living from a suitcase
Fmaj7
Thinking �this is how a silver spoon tastes?�
Am
Cause you can make a dream possible
G
But it�ll never be easy, no matter what you chase
C
If you wanna poke fun then do so
Fmaj7
I�ll do it for you, it�s no crime
Am
I�m like if the dude from Juno 
G
Grew a Jewfro and liked to rhyme (OOoooooohhh!!!)
C
So tell me that I�m not a rapper
Fmaj7
Tell Rudolph he can�t pull sleighs
Am
Tell pluto it�s not a planet
G
And he�ll probably keep spinning in the same old way
C
On and on, every day
Fmaj7
Right around the sun, wanna feel the rays
Am
You do it �cause you love it like nothing else in the universe
G
And f*** it, it�s embedded in your DNA
