[Verse 1]
       Em                               
Yeah, most of my life's full of sad days
    D                 
Started at a young age
         G                                        
Yeah, bought a house but I've been livin' on stage
  Am                                        
Tryna find the real me, I ain't found it yet
  Em                                         
Wake up every morning feelin' like I'm guilty
                       D       
Talk to God, "Can You hear me?"
Lately, I'm a mess
 Am                           
I don't want no one to help me
          D

If you think that I make decisions based off of what you think, then you're wrong
                        D                       
Can't nobody think for me, I got my own thoughts
                                   Am                                        
Sometimes you don't know what you had until it's all gone, till it's all gone
   G                           Am                       Em          
If I took the hand that was dealt me then I would be nowhere in life
                          D
Yeah, I had to think smart
                 Am                     
Threw away the deck and got my own cards
                        Em                 
Long before I had the money to afford a car

[Chorus 1]
G                          
I–I've been doin' me (yeah)
 Am               
I've been doin' me
                       Em
Yeah, I've been doin' me
                 D

  Am

[Verse 2]
 Em                              
Most of my life's full of regrets
                D             
Things I wanna take back, yeah
  Am                                               
Wrote you a letter, wish that I had never sent that
   G                                     
Didn't even make sense, I don't even know
 Em                                      
All I know is I get lower on the weekends
      D                                               
They tell me I should make friends, I just sit at home
 Am                                     
Lately, I've been off the deep end, yeah
  D                           
I've been off the deep end and

[Pre-Chorus 2]
     G                           Am                      Em                     
If you think that I'm 'bout to change who I am just for you then you're so wrong
      D                                       
As a kid I built a house around my broke heart
                                   Am                                          
Sometimes you don't know what you had until it falls apart, till it falls apart
   G                           Am                       Em          
If I took the hand that was dealt me then I would be nowhere in life
                          D
Yeah, I had to think smart
                 Am                     
Threw away the deck and got my own cards
                        Em                 
Long before I had the money to afford a car

[Chorus 2]
G                          
I–I've been doin' me (yeah)
 Am               
I've been doin' me
                       Em
Yeah, I've been doin' me
                 D
I've been doin' me
               G   
Followin' my dreams
        Em              
Yeah, I've been doin' me
  Am              
I've been doin' me
                  G
I've been doin' me
                       D
Yeah, I've been doin' me
                 Am
I've been doin' me
                Em 
Followin' my dreams
                       G

[Verse 3]
                 Em                              
Yeah, I'm reminiscin' back to both of us laughin'
          D                                             
Playin' old records, thinkin' every one of 'em's classic
          Am                                         
Windows down, we on the street up in Michigan rappin'
              G                                          
We talked about it, but never really knew it could happen
          Em                            
My confidence about as low as the gas is
                           D                                   
We didn't have the money for it, so we'd turn the key backwards
      Am                                                  
and sit in parking lots for hours till the battery crashes
                    G                                             
I think that we related 'cause both of us were lookin' for answers
                 D                                                 
A couple months ago I drove into Gladwin, got me all in my feelings
           Am                                       
It's somethin' 'bout bein' somewhere that's familiar
              G                                                    
Pull in the gas station, open up the tank then I fill it then laugh
              Em                                    D                        
Would I move back? Mm, not in a million, but I appreciate the memories we had
                     Am                            
I know you've been callin', sorry I never call back
                      G                              
I know I've been distant, you know I never meant that
                    D                            
You can tell the family how I'm doing if they ask
               Am
I'm just doin' me
