[Verse 1]
CI tried to tell myself, but I don’t wanna hear it
FSeems like nowadays somebody's always goGtta clear it
Gimme the oCkay, the rubber stamp, the thumbs up, the green light; neFver sang a song I neGver liked
But you ainC't gonna listen if I'm afraid to say it and you wFon't tap your feet if I'm afGraid to play it
And if I caCn't be real, well I promise I'll fake it, besides hFalf of ya are gonna love it
And the othGer half is gonna hate it
But is tChat the country we live in or what. . . FDon't answer thatG
[Verse 2]
ReCach for the rafters, swing for the fences, your comin' dFown the home stretch, you brGing 'em to their senses
If at fiCrst you don't succeed, well you get the gist; nFever there, never in, you nGever get kissed
SCtep on the gas; kick some ass, up the mountain through the pass.
I've mFet a lot of nice guys who dGidn't finish last.
But you aCin't gonna listen if I'm afraid to say it and you wFon't tap your feet if I'm aGfraid to play it
And if I Ccan't be real, hell I promise I'll fake it
Besides hFalf of ya are gonna love it and the othGer half is gonna flat out hate it
But is Cthat the country we live in or wFhat? G
[Chorus]
FCie la Cvie, Fdossie do and Cdo re mi, I'm oFvercome and Coverwhelmed and just a lE7ittle short of conAmfidence
FBut, Orville Wright didn't hGave no pilot's liCcense . . . Fthink about thatG
[Verse 3]
The shoCw must go on, so on with the show; Fonce upon a time and lGong, long ago
BegCin at the beginning if you don't know where to start
You know sFomethin' about a horse and soGmethin' about a cart
Give me a hCigh five, down low, not bad, good to go. FHike up your skirt and Glook out below
Cause you aCin't gonna listen if I'm afraid to say it and you wFon't tap your feet if I'm aGfraid to play it
And if I cCan't be real, hell I promise I'll fake it
Besides hFalf of ya are gonna love it and the other hGalf are gonna absolutely hate it
But is tChat the country we find ourselves livin' in at this vFery moment or wGhat. . . Don't answer that
[Chorus]
FCie la vCie, dFossie do and Cdo re mi, I'm oFvercome and Coverwhelmed and just a E7little short of confAmidence
FBut, Orville Wright didn't hGave no pilot's licenCse . . . OrvFille Wright didn't Ghave no pilot's liCcense
[Bridge]
GWell I'm God forsaken and I'm Fwell passed my pCrime
GAnd this old heart's achin', rFemember the tiCme?
FI'm ripe for the takin' and I'm bettin' my last dCime
FCan't be a criminal if don't commit the crGime
[Verse 4]
CWell you can count your chickens before they're hatched; you can Fstart a fire without a mGatch
CThey haven't even thrown it yet, you can Fstill make the catch; you just gotta get your gGlove up
CYou can still sing along if you don't know the song, you can sFtill stick around once evGerybody’s gone
You can be aCbsolutely right when you’re absolutely wrong, and in this country, Fwe'll elect ya PreGsident
And I still can't believe that
[Chorus]
FCie la Cvie, Fdossie do and Cdo re mi, I'm oFvercome and Coverwhelmed and just a lE7ittle short of coAmnfidence
FBut, Orville Wright didn't have nGo pilot's lCicense . . . FOrville Wright didn't Ghave no pilot's lCicense F
