[Verse 1]
A E
Over in the corner
A E
Like an old barstool
A
He held me up
E
Right when I needed him to
[Verse 2]
A E
He said “Listen up my friend
A E
Let me tell you what I know
A
You can wish you were someone else
E
Then you gotta let it go
[Chorus]
E
Cause that’s a good way
B
To get a bad start
E A
I don’t care what straw you drew
E B E A E
You gotta let it make the best of you
[Verse 3]
A E
We ain't playing a game
A E
We ain’t running a race
A
It’s a way of life, boy
E
You just gotta find your place
[Verse 4]
A E
I used to be like you
A E
Would sit here in the dark
A
Watch ‘em in the spotlight
E
And pick myself apart

To get a bad start

You gotta let it make the best of you

When they bring down the lights”

Then the room went dark
A E
I could barely see his face
A
Picked up his old Martin box
E
Ready for the stage
[Verse 6]
A E
He said “Let me ask you this
A E
Whatcha gonna do?
A
Will you pick yourself up
E
Or find a crack to fall through?
[Chorus]
E
Cause that’s a good way
B
To get a bad start
E A
I don’t care what straw you drew
E B E A
You gotta let it make the best of you

You don’t need a good way

To get a bad start

I don’t care what straw you drew
