[C]
When [F] I was young I used to dream [Cm] of being rich
Havin' [F] lot of houses and cars, couldn't know [Bb] which one is which
And findin' me a [C] kickin' gettin' hitch
Livin' the fairytale life, perfect without a ditch
[F] You'd think that this would be me happiness
If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest
Sometime havin' more is really less
[C] Take a look inside yourself, you'll realize [F] you're really blessed
No matter how you're sad and blue
There's always someone who has it worse than you
[Bb] Sometimes you gotta [G] pay your dues
[C] So don't worry, just push on [F] through

I'm not the kind of brother who be makin' mad [Bb] acts
I got myself a girl but we be kickin' it as [C] thanks
It's not enough, well maybe that depends
[F] Again, not everything you want is everything you really need
The standard of society's [Bb] motivated by greed
Are you prepared to follow them or are you prepared to [C] leave them?
So persevere and you'll [Dm] succeed
Even in real
