Key: C

Intro:

C


Verse 1:
C
You may not feel like a first place prize
C
The color ribbon you are is the look in your eyes
C
The greatest table setting at the county fair
C
You thought they overlooked you in their judge’s chair
C

Before you go puttin’ down your beautiful size
C
And hatin’ on the natural circumference of your thighs
C
Too round, too short, too tall, too slight
C
Try lookin’ at you with a pair of doting eyes


Chorus:
C                                   A#
I’m not just rootin’ for everybody
        F            C
But I’m rootin’ for you
                                                D
I wanna see you get to where you want to, buddy
                             G
Feelin’ the way you ought to do
         C  N.C.
Well I’m hootin’ and a’ hollerin’ front row, honey
N.C.
Hoping that you take all of the fat cats’ money
    C                               A#
I’m not just rootin’ for everybody
        F            C
But I’m rootin’ for you


Verse 2:
C
Before you go a’ changin’ from your boots to your hat
C
May I remind you there ain’t no one lookin’ like that
C
How coo-coo-cool to be one of a kind
C
Not just talkin’ ‘bout your looks, I’m also talkin’ ‘bout your mind
C
You may not ever be met with applause
C
Or understanding, but that don’t mean that you’re flawed
C
Ain’t no point in doin’ it for the medals
C
But I’ll be over here tossin’ you the rose petals


Chorus:
C                                   A#
I’m not just rootin’ for everybody
        F            C
But I’m rootin’ for you
                                                D
I wanna see you get to where you want to, buddy
                             G
Feelin’ the way you ought to do
         C  N.C.
Well I’m hootin’ and a’ hollerin’ front row, honey
N.C.
Hoping that you take all of the fat cats’ money

Verse 3:
C
Well I’m hootin’ and a hollerin’ front row, honey
C
Hoping that you take all of the fat cats’ money
C
Anywhere you’re headed, I’m running alongside
C
Anyone who ain’t, you’re gonna pass em by


Chorus:
C                                   A#
I’m not just rootin’ for everybody
        F            C
But I’m rootin’ for you
                                   A#
I’m not just rootin’ for everybody
