[Verse 1]
C Am7 Em
Crush a bit, little bit, roll it up, take a hit
C Am7 Em
Feeling lit, feeling right, 2:00 a.m., summer night
C Am7
I don't care, hand on the wheel, driving drunk, I'm doing my thing
C Am7
Rolling in the Midwest side and out, living my life, getting out dreams
C Am7 Em
People told me slow my roll, I'm screaming out "F--- that"
C Am7 Em
I'ma do just what I want, looking ahead, no turning back
C F C Am7
If I fall, if I die, know I lived it to the fullest
C F C
If I fall, if I die, know I lived and missed some bullets
[Chorus]
C Am7 Em
I'm on the pursuit of happiness, and I know
C Am7 Em
Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold
C Am7
Yeah, I'll be fine once I get it
C Am7
I'll be good
[Verse 2]
C Am7 Em
Tell me what you know about dreaming, dreaming
C Am7 Em
You don't really know about nothing, nothing
C Am7
Tell me what you know about them night terrors every night
C Am7
5:00 a.m., cold sweats, waking up to the sky?
C Am7 Em
Tell me what you know about dreams, dreams
C Am7 Em
Tell me what you know about night terrors, nothing
C F C Am7
You don't really care about the trials of tomorrow
C F C
Rather lie awake in the bed full of sorrow
[Chorus]
C Am7 Em
I'm on the pursuit of happiness, and I know
C Am7 Em
Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold
C Am7
Yeah, I'll be fine once I get it
C Am7
I'll be good
C Am7 Em
I'm on the pursuit of happiness, and I know
C Am7 Em
Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold
C Am7
Yeah, I'll be fine once I get it
C Am7
I'll be good
