Get Mine

 G
When I was young my mother said to me,
 G
"You can grow up and be anything you wanna be"
 C
Well now that I'm older I'm doing what I can
 G
But everybody round me want me to be like them
 D
When people tell me that I gotta fall in line
 G
I say, "You go get yours, I'll go get mine"

 G
When I was young my father said to me,
 G
"You gotta work hard if you wanna succeed"
 C
Well my only job give me dirty fingernails
 G
And I'm still waiting on a check in the mail
 D
I asked the boss if he'd pay me on time
 G
He just said, "You go get yours, I'll go get mine"

 C
Oh no one told me there'd be days like these
 G
I never pray but now I'm on my knees
 D
I looked to God to get some advice
 G
He said, "You go get yours and I'll go get mine"

 G
And the people on the TV they keep on telling
 G
me, "You gotta fall in love if you wanna be happy"
 C
Well I think my girl just met another guy
 G
Cause every time I see her she won't look me in the eye
 D
She told me, "Boy, I wish you woulda tried"
 G
I just said, "You go get yours baby, I'll go get mine"

 C
Oh no one told me there'd be days like these
 G
I never pray but now I'm on my knees
 D
I looked to God to get some advice
 G
He said, "You go get yours and I'll go get mine"

 G
All of your life you gotta stay on the grind
 G
I'd help you get yours but it won't help me get mine
 G
All of your life you gotta stay on the grind
 G
I'd help you get yours but it won't help me get mine
 C
Oh no one told me there'd be days like
 G
these I never pray but now I'm on my knees
 D
I looked to God to get some advice
 G
He said, "You go get yours, I'll go get mine."
