[Verse 1]
D A
You were born alive and well,
Bm G D A Gmaj7
You were just fighting for yourself in Kansas, 1985,
D A
You made peace with your parents,
Bm G D A Gmaj7
Or the companies at least, when you bought them their birthday cards,
Bm
And you ran into their bedroom,
Gmaj7 A Em
Screaming, “wake on up, it‘s morning! Don't just sleep the day away!“,
D Bm G F#m
And in 21 years, everything that you have learned it turns,
Em
And betrays you.

[Verse 2]
D A
You were scared and very nervous,
Bm G D A Gmaj7
On the first day of school, when you moved here from out west,
D A Bm G
And the self-righteous sultans of Brooklyn took you in,
D A Gmaj7
And you played baseball in the streets,
Bm G
And you were very tired, so the city never sleeps,
F#m Gmaj7 Bm
So, I stayed up with you over telephone wires,
Gmaj7 D F#m
Right out of this empire state,
Em
That claims your heartache.
[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Bm G
And if you want something you've gotta do it yourself,
F#m Em
If you want something you've gotta do it yourself,
Bm G
Don‘t sacrifice work for subliminal health,
F#m G D A Bm G
If you want something you've gotta do it yourself.
[Interlude]
D A Gmaj7
D A Bm G

[Chorus]

And if you want something you've gotta do it yourself,
F#m Em
If you want something you've gotta do it yourself,
Bm G
Don‘t sacrifice work for subliminal health,
F#m Em D A Bm G
If you want something you've gotta do it yourself.
