              F#m   
     The pressure's buildin' up 
     I feel like givin' up 
Bm 
     How in the fuck am I gonna back my first album up 
D 
     Well everything has changed 
     It'll never be the same 
C#m 
    Nobody know me 
    Then everybody knows my name 
Bm 
    And I feel so ashamed   
F#m  
    I never been the kinda nigga that would complain 
D  
    But it's so crazy man 
C#m 
    It's no different 
    Everyday it's just the same thing 
 
F#m                                 Bm  
    Now it's been months out on the road 
                                    D    
    On tour doin' so many different shows 
                                             C#m 
    Head spinnin' feelin' like it's gonna explode 
    And I just wanna know 
F#m                                Bm 
    If anybody out there's feelin' me 
    I'm losin' my mind 
                  D 
    And I can't believe 
                                    C#m 
    I let this shit get the best of me 
    And now I gotta let ya know 
    F#m   
    One's got me insane 
          Bm 
    Cause I can't stand the rain 
         D 
    It's hitting my window pane 
                 C#m 
    A little too much 
    And now I gotta let ya know 
    F#m 
    One's got my face in a frown 
          Bm 
    Cause I can't stand the sound 
           D 
    Of the thunder that's crashing down 
            C#m 
    Upon my house 
    Now I gotta let ya know
