🎸 Verse 1:
      Am
They don't know me like they think they do, I ain't one for Hollywood
 F
A lot of shoulda-wouldas walkin' 'round you when the money's good
  Am                       G
And to me I ain't famous, I just made it 'cause I'm from the woods
  F
If pop ain't used to my kind to me I think it's understood
 Am
I already made a mark for every girl barrel racin'
   F
Every boy slidin' across the hood, landin' on the pavement
  Am                     G
Got nothin' to do with races unless it's racin' against myself
  F
To dedicate my life to feelin' good and not devoid of wealth
Am
Go ahead, chase the paper, I'll take a walk to see the source
F

Take a field of flowers over camera flashes on board
     Am                       A
But these snapshots are timeless like an Iris that don't die
   F
So I smile and wave like flowers wavin' on edges of roadsides


🎸 Chorus:
   Am
Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
C   F
Still doin' my thing as the cars fly by
G  Am      C
All night, that's right
     F
I'll get where I'm goin' with no hitchhike
G     Am           C
And don't worry 'bout me when the sun goes down
    F           G
I'll be somewhere whistlin' to my own sound
   Am       C
In my hometown, by my own self
     F           G
I'll get there, same shoes, no thumb out


🎸 Verse 2:
      Am                   Cm
It's not an everyday occurrence that I get to feel normal
    F
People treat me like I'm royal, talk my head off with the courage
     Am                C
They done filled my tank so much that it's started overflowin'
      F
I'm good at rappin', good at singin', thank you, thank you, yeah I know it
    Am                   A
And my ego's still the same but my anxiety is potent
   F
Cause I just wanna chill and be somebody nobody knows
      Am                      G
And I'm so high I'm steady floatin', flickin' ashes down below me
     F
Thinkin' 'bout the road I'm on, the speed limit's still wide open
  Am
How long can I drive without plowin' in a tree
     F
Knockin' my face off like my friend Charlene?
    Am                          C
Tell me how I'm 'posed to be sane when the world is makin' me crazy?
  F
The cities are set ablaze and the hatred is on the pavement
     Am                       C
And every time you make a statement, motherfuckers wanna take it
    F
There's another rapper like you bein' made at record labels


🎸 Chorus:
   Am            C
Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
   F           G
Still doin' my thing as the cars fly by
Am        C
All night, that's right
     F            G
I'll get where I'm goin' with no hitchhike
     Am           C
And don't worry 'bout me when the sun goes down
    F           G
I'll be somewhere whistlin' to my own sound
   Am         C
In my hometown, by my own self
     F           G
I'll get there, same shoes, no thumb out


🎸 Verse 3:
    Am
I'm the one they didn't get, I'm the one they couldn't catch
    F
I'm the one they couldn't bribe with cars, groupies, and stacks
D       Am             C
Yeah, I'm that motherfucker, ha, King Kong of my own castle
    F
With a army behind me ready to smack who's walkin' past me
    Am                      C
I done been down in the dumps, now I'm restless on a mountain
    F
Got the youth that people die for, yeah, my face is everlastin'
  Am              C
But my music will outlast me, the outcast that kept their traction
     F
When the tires went bald, I got out with my country ass
    Am                   C
Leave a laugh for the past, narrow eyes for the rest
     F
Sleepin' good these days 'cause I made my bed
    Am                  C
Where I lay my head there's plenty paper and lead
     F
And this story ain't over 'til I got no blank pages left


🎸 Chorus:
   Am          C
Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
   F           G
Still doin' my thing as the cars fly by
  Am      C
All night, that's right
     F            G
I'll get where I'm goin' with no hitchhike
     Am
And don't worry 'bout me when the sun goes down
C    F           G
I'll be somewhere whistlin' to my own sound
   Am
In my hometown, by my own self
C    F           G
I'll get there, same shoes, no thumb out
