[Verse 1]
F EmYou gon' be a star, they said
They said
Dm7You gon' take us far, they said
They said
FEverywhere you go
EmThey're gon' know your name
Dm7Who cares if you get lonely
Long as you're famous
FDon't you want money and the cars
Em Dm7They said expensive liquor and cigars, they said
F EmI mean, what's better than having everything that you dreamed of?
Dm7Long as they need you, you don't need love
[Chorus]
F EmJust be great
Dm7Put on for your city, for your state
And whatever you do
F EmJust make us proud
Dm7Ain't gonna be no cryin' from the clouds
Yeah, they say
F EmJust be great
Dm7Who cares if there's too much on your plate
FDon't make no mistakes and hide your pain
EmNo rain
Dm7Whatever you do, just make us proud
F Em Dm7Ain't gonna be no cryin' from the clouds
F Em Dm7(Ain't gonna be no cryin' from the clouds)

F EmYou gon', you gonna be a star, they said
They said
Dm7Don't waste your tomorrow, they said
They said
F EmYou're the one that's chosen to make it out
Dm7Gotta seize the moment
Don't let us down
N.C. Em
Just gotta play your part, they said
Dm7And history, you'll be a part of it
F EmI mean, what's better than having everything that you dreamed of?
Dm7Long as they need you, you don't need love
[Chorus]
F EmJust be great (Great)
Dm7Put on for your city, for your state (State)
And whatever you do
F EmJust make us proud (Proud)
Dm7Ain't gonna be no cryin' from the clouds (Clouds)
Yeah, they say

F Em Dm7Ain't gonna be no cryin' from the clouds, oooh
F Em(Ain't gonna be no cryin' from the clouds)
Dm7Oooh
(Ain't gonna be no)
[Bridge/Rap]
F EmI was way too far out in the world
Dm7But I still put on for my city
I was handing out too much milk money
Too much kitten and ass and titties
F Em I lost my voice like a pastor
Faster than a Harlem shimmy
Dm7 But I guess that's what you get
For trying to make heartbreak pretty
F EmThey say life's a bitch (Life's a bitch) and then you die
Dm7 So please, if you're penning my eulogy, just say I tried
F Em And that's word to Phineas, Jess' and Si'
Dm7 And if I don't wake up in Heaven
F EmThen it was one hell of a ride (Hell of a ride)
Dm7 If I don't wake up in Heaven
F EmThen it was one hell of a ride
Dm7A hell of a ride

[Outro/Rap]
F EmMomma said money can't buy me happiness
Dm7
So I copped a G5
Tried to fly myself up next to it
FI fucked up some commas
EmJust to dot-dot-dot
Where's the rest of it?
Dm7This what clean look like
When clean took life and made a mess of it
FHad to realize I'm just blessed to it
EmYou can't take it all with you
Dm7But you can remember the best of it
I pray for peace within myself
FAnd no more regrets with it
Em'Cause when I looked at my soul in the Mississippi
Dm7It reflected it
And if you know me, you're right next to it
N.C.
I'm everything you thought I was
N.C.
I'm everything I thought I was
N.C.
It was everything I thought it was
N.C.
It was everything I thought it was
