D
No matter what I do I can't make you happy
C G D
Though I go to great lenghts to do your will
G D
If you say hurry, girl I make it snappy
E A
Trying hard to keep your wishes filled
D
But I'm getting tired and feeling real discouraged
Bm G
So here's a message you can give your mama
D A7 D
Starting now I'm looking out for number one
[Chorus]
G
Lord, everyone around me
I've tried so hard to please
D
Till the only one unhappy
Feeling broken down is me
Bm
But things are gonna change
G
With each new setting sun
D A7 D
Starting now I'm looking out for number one

D
It's getting hard to face my morning mirror
C G D
There's a stranger in there staring back at me
G D
He tells me every day it's getting cle arer
E A
Son you're not the man you used to be
D
Yeah it's time to get this monkey off my shoulder
G D
And quit worrying 'bout the things that you want done
Bm G
I'm gonna start the fire that you have sm oldered
D A7 D
'Cause starting now I'm looking out for number one
[Chorus]
G
Lord, everyone around me
I've tried so hard to please

Till the only one unhappy
Feeling broken down is me

But things are gonna change
G
With each new setting sun
D A7 D
Starting now I'm looking out for number one
D
Yeah number one
Number one
