G#m                C#                   E                 B   F#
 Somebody told me once that pain is a game we all gotta play.
G#m                   C#                 E                B   F#
  Then why am I in overtime and sudden death every other day.
G#m                     C#                      E                 B   F#
   I know that for the good of life there's a price we all gotta pay
         G#m                       C#                      E                    B    F#
But I'll pay till I'm poor and I still don't know what it is to have a good day, yeah

C#m                              G#m
  Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do.
              C#             A#               D#
Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you.

[Chorus]
        G#m             C#
I don't need no one to put me down,
              E                   B     F#
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower.
            G#m             C#                       E                         B     F#
And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older.
            G#m              C#                       E
And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies
                  B    F#    G#m
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
 C#       E            B     F#   G#m
No no no no I can do bad all by myself

[Verse 2]
                  C#                          E                  B     F#
Somebody told me once that running from the rain don't make no sense.
         G#m                    C#                       E         B      F#
I had my own dark cloud for a while now, it goes where ever I'm going, yeah
G#m                        C#                   E
  They're telling me the grass just might be greener on the other side.
B               F#           G#m                  C#               E                   B    F#
  But I don't wanna take a chance on dirt when I got grass even though the grass has died.

C#m                              G#m
  Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do.
              C#             A#               D#
Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you.

[Chorus]
        G#m             C#
I don't need no one to put me down,
              E                   B     F#
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower.
            G#m             C#                       E                         B     F#
And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older.
            G#m              C#                       E
And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies
                  B    F#    G#m
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
 C#       E            B     F#   G#m
No no no no I can do bad all by myself

[Bridge]
       C#m                E         F#
Don't waste time feeling bad for me
G#m        C#m                 E     F#
  I didn't ask you for your sympathy
 G#m       C#m              E       F#
No I know God is watching over me
 C#                                  D#sus  D#
   So I guess this is where I'm supposed to be Ohh yes

[Instrumental]
G#m C# E B F# x2

[Chorus]
        G#m             C#
I don't need no one to put me down,
              E                   B     F#
I'm on the ground, can't get no lower.
            G#m             C#                       E                         B     F#
And I don't need no one to hang around and make me frown just makes me look older.
            G#m              C#                       E
And I don't need no one to black my eye and tell me lies
                  B    F#    G#m
Don't wanna cry over nobody else
 C#       E            B     F#   G#m
