[Verse 1]
G C
I never wanted scratch offs
C G
But my daddy always bought 'em
D
My great aunt spent her life
C G
in Virginia pulling cotton
G G7/B
I don't have no microwave
C Am
or a flat screen tv
G G/F# Em
If you don't do right by yourself
C G
do right by me
C G
do right by me
[Verse 2]
G C
Long as the winters are
C G
sometimes your mind breaks up
D
Bars full by the afternoon
C G
and everyone is drunk
G G7/B
Sometimes I look down the road
C Am
for a sign I'll never see
G G/F# Em
If you don't do right by yourself
C G C
do right by me, do right by me
G
do right by me, do right by me
[Chorus]
D C7
Do right by me
B
Don't sell me down the river
C
Put me out my misery
G C
Do right by me, do right by me
G C G
Do right by me, do right by me
C
Do right by me
G C
Do right by me
[Verse 3]
G C
Knew I had to get away
C G
So I left that one-horse town
D
Ain't much for a girl to do
C G
but get knocked up and settle down
G G7/B
The only dream some people have
C Am
is to win the lottery
G G/F# Em
If you don't do right by yourself
C G
do right by me
[Verse 4]
G C
Some people climb a ladder
C G
Till they end up at the bottom
D
Spending all that precious time
C G
on money, fame, and stardom
G G7/B
All I ever wanted
C C/B Am
was my own song to sing
G G/F# Em Em/D
If you don't do right by yourself
C G
do right by me
C G
do right by me
[Chorus]
D C7
Do right by me
B
Don't sell me down the river
C
Put me out my misery
G C
Do right by me, do right by me
G C
Do right by me, do right by me
G C
Do right by me, do right by me
G C
Do right by me, do right by me
