Know About Me

(Song I wrote-Chords available)

I wrote it about the the people who have never supported me in my music

Verse 1

I was just fourteen

When someone said to me

Just quit while you're ahead

Find a skill that will pay the bills

And settle down and have kids instead

Verse 2

I was in twelfth grade

When my teacher said

You'll never get anywhere with that had

It's in the clouds and you're much too loud

They'll knock you out in a single round

Chorus

Yeah that's what they said about me

Yeah, that's what they said about me

And I said

Hey you, what do you know about me?

I'm just very naive with my heart on my sleeve

Tryin' to make people beleive in me

I've been strumming along

Bleeding fingers til dawn

But man I will get bye

Ohhh because I'll try

Verse 3

I'll be 21 in a few days

I can't wait to get out of this goddamned place

It's freezing cold and the paint is old

I've been living exactly just like they told me so

Verse 4

I'm going to show them all just what I can be

Because I know back home everyone still doubts me

Even with this head and the books I've read

I still remember what they said

About me

Chorus 2

That's what they said about me

And I said

Hey you, what do you know about me?

I'm just some silly girl in a cosumer world

Tryin' to get myself of MTV

I've been strumming along

Bleeding fingers til dawn

But man I will get bye

Ohhh because I'll try

Bridge

Let me show you why I'll make it

Say what you like, I can take it

Chorus 3

When I say

Hey you, what do you know about me?

I'm just some pretty thing that will do anything

Tryin' to get myself of CMT

I've been strumming along

Bleeding fingers til dawn

But man I will get bye

Ohhh because I'll try

Oooh because I'll try
