[Intro 1]
[Am][G][F][Dm][Am]
[G][F][Dm][Esus4]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Well you're magic he said
But don't let it all go to your [C]head
[G]'Cause I bet[F] if you all had
it all figured out
Then you'd [Dm]never get out [Esus4]of bed
[Em]Well, no [Am]doubt
Of all the thing's that I've
read what he wrote me
[G]It's now sounding like the
man I was [F]hoping
To be
I keep on keeping it real
[Dm]'Cause it keeps getting
[Am]easier he'll [Dm]see
He's the reason that I'm laughing
[G]Even if there's no [Am]one e[G]lse[F][Dm]
He said, you've got to [G]love
yourself
[Am][G][F]

[Verse 2]
[Dm]
[Em]You say, you shouldn't
[Am]mumble when you speak
But keep [G]your tongue up in your cheek
And if you [F]stumble on
to something better
Remember that [Dm]it's humble
that you [C]seek
[Em]You got [Am]all the skill you need
Indi[G]viduality
You got something
[F]They call it gumption
They call it [Dm]anything you want
[Em]Because when you p[Dm]lay the fool [G]now
You're only [Am]fooling
[G]everyone [F]else[Dm]
You're learning to [G]love your[Am]self
[G]

[Verse 3]
[F]
Yes [Dm]you are, [Em]you a[Am]re, yes you, you,
[G]you
[F][Dm][Em]

[Verse 4]
[Dm]
And there's no price to pay,
[G]no,[Dm] no
When you're givin' what [G]you take
[Dm]That's why it's easy to than[G]k you[Am]
[G]You, [F]you[Dm][Em]
[Am]You, you, [G]you
[F][Dm][Em]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Let's say you take a break
from our day
And gettin' [G]back to the old garage
Because [F]life's too short anyway
But at least it's [Dm]better then aver[Em]age
As long as [Am]you got me
And I got yo, you know we'll
got a [G]lot to go around
I'll be [F]your friend, your other brother
Another [Dm]love to come and com
[C]fort [Dm]you

[Verse 6]
And I'll keep [G]reminding
If it's the only [Am]thing I [G]ever [F]do[Dm]
I [G]will always love [Am]you[G][F][Dm][C]
