Intro 

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.
