verse 1 
F# 
I've been feeling like a victim 
A#m 
Cryin' over a broken system 
D#m                           B 
Wishin' I could trade my car, in for a new whip 
F# 
Money's tight and time is a commodity 
A#m 
A little bad luck and I cross the line to poverty 
D#m 
My car's dying and deaths are compounding 
B* 
Swimming the line and treading water and drowning 
 
       F# 
But hey 
                     A#m 
It's all going to be fine 
                     D#m 
I put worries out my mind 
                   B 
I always must remind myself 
                   F#m 
The struggle is divine 
                A#m 
Society draws lines 
                      D#m 
But they not how one define 
                  B 
Relax and give it time 
                     F#m 
It's all going to be fine 
 
Interlude 
(F#) A#m D#m B 
Na na na na na na na 
 
verse 2 
 F#* 
Truth is, I'm prone to depression 
      A#7* 
But a life spent coping has taught me a lesson 
D#m* 
Happiness can't be bought or given 
        B* 
Despite what is missing 
                   F# 
It's a life worth livin' 
 
verse 3 
(F#) 
The billion cells all working together as one 
 A#m 
Create the warmth that you feel 
 
When you step into the sun 
D#m 
Our existence is a complete phenomenon 
       B 
So whatever you're stressin' pales in comparison 
 
verse 4 
   F# 
Live a life following where you're heart leads you 
       A#m 
Not mimicking charades displayed on social media 
D#m 
Forget the values society feeds you 
            B 
There's no right or wrong 
 
It's just whatever completes you 
 
       F# 
But hey 
                     A#m 
It's all going to be fine 
                     D#m 
I put worries out my mind 
                   B 
I always must remind myself 
                   F#m 
The struggle is divine 
                A#m 
Society draws lines 
                      D#m 
But they not how one define 
                  B 
Relax and give it time 
                     F#m 
It's all going to be fine 
 
Outro
