[Verse]
G C
You think that I'd be a doctor by now
D G
With all of this self medicating
C
You think that I was an x-ray machine
D G
With everything that I been radiating
[Chorus]
Am D
But I wasn't born to blow it
Am D
Yea I wasn't born to blow it
[Verse]
G C
You think that I was a master magician
D G
The way that I keep disappearing
C
You think that I was some kind of bell boy
D G
With all of this baggage I been bringing
[Chorus]
Am D
But I wasn't born to blow it
Am D D D D/C D/C D/C D/B D/B D/B Am Am N.C.
Yea I wasn't born to blow it
G
I'm just my own great destroyer
[Verse]
C
You'd think that I was a prisoner
D G
With all of these bars that I walked into
C
You'd think that I was the king James bible
D G
With all of this bull shit I've been slinging
[Chorus]
Am D
But I wasn't born to blow it
Am D
Yea I wasn't born to blow it
[Bridge]

C
Honey you might think that I was an astronaut
D G
The way that I been acting so spacey
C
And you'd think that maybe I'd been hired as government diplomat
D G
With all of this conflict I am been facing
But I've been picturing a time and place
C
Where I can defeat this defeat inside of me
D G
And bury him out in the plains where the wind blows so wicked and so wild
[Bridge]
G
I can't seem to get it together
Am
Feel like I'm becoming untethered
G
And I don't mean to annoy ya
