G
Well you never quite forget the first tape you bought
C D
Mine was Naughty by Nature back when OPP was hot
G
Who'd have thought that I could ever turn out this way
C C
I'm blaming Ad-Rock Mike D and MCA
G
Yeah it was Beasties on my mind pretty much all the time
C D
Till I started smoking pot and figured out about Sublime
G
Oh my God I never wanted something so badly
C D
I wanted to learn to play guitar and sing just like Bradley
G
And the B-lines that Eric dropped reminded me of hip hop
C D G
And I'm singin' Lovin' is what I got I got I got
Cause when the loving was gone
C D
I learned to play the blues through Stevie Ray Vaughn
G
I needed music for all the ways it helped me feel
C D
And now I'm loving my guitar the way that B B loved Lucille
G
Can you feel it yeah
C D
I'm like damn strings never sounded so appealing
G
Can you feel it yeah
C D G
I'm like once you grab the mic you better sing like you believe
C D
Like you believe
G

G
Well Bob Marley was the tune little J was in the womb
C D
My mom would put the headphones on her belly feel me move
G
And every Jimi Hendrix riff I'd give her a little kick
C D
Just to let her know to turn it up a little bit
G
And Please when I grow up can I sound like Police
C D
That's what I was thinkin' while I prayed on my knees
G
But now that I'm grown I found a sound of my own
C D
I'm in the studio now and I feel I'm home
G
Can you feel it yeah
C D
I'm like damn strings never sounded so appealing
G
Can you feel it yeah
C D G
I'm like once you grab the mic you better sing like you believe

G
Well now my music's been shelved because these people don't believe in me
C D
But I'm a fill the shelf up before they hear the end of me
G
I'll be writin' songs until the end of all eternity
C D
I never went to college man my band was my fraternity
G
Never stick my nose into shit that ain't concernin' me
C D
But I'll be the first to swing man if you're burnin' me
G
Every day you wait is just another day wasted
C D
I'm so damn close man I can taste it
G
Can you feel it yeah
C D
I'm like damn strings never sounded so appealing
G
Can you feel it yeah
