Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]They say the sun never sets
[G]on those who ride [D]into it
[G]Well I say if you fall [D]for that shit,
[G]well you're gonna get bur[D]ned[F#m][G]
[A]If [D]you spend your days
do[G]ing nothing but [D]dreaming
[F#m]You mi[G]ght be in for a gleam[D]ing
[G]I hope that s[A]omeday you'll l[D]earn[A][D]
[A]That whe[D]n you wish upo[F#m]n a star[D],
[G]your dreams probably won[D]'t come true
[G]In fact, it's between [D]me and you
[G]Them stars,
they don't give a dam[D]n[F#m][G]
[A]Now [D]I'm from Missouri
[G]You're gonna have [D]to show me [F#m]first
[D]Oth[G]erwise I'm gonna
[D]think the [F#m]worst
[G]That's the kind of [A]guy that I [D]am[A][D][A]
So I'm [Bm]sorry if I have
been [F#m]far from sweet
But [G]black folks is something
I'd [F#m]rather eat
It's [Em]not that I don't give a damn
It's just that I am an [A]honest
[D]man[G][D][A][D]
[G]Mother said a good man
is an [F#m]honest [Bm]man
Teach[G]er said I always
should stick [F#m]to the fac[Bm]ts
The [G]word I'm telling you
is coming [F#m]straight from my [Bm]heart
Now [E]why the hell should I use
[A]tech?[G][D][F#m][A][G][F#m]
[D]Some people have been [F#m]telling [D]me
[G]They think I'm much too [D]negative
[F#m]That I[G] am all take and [D]no give
An[G]d well, that could be t[D]rue[F#m][G]
[A]So I'm [D]sorry if [G]I may have rained
on your [D]utopia
[G]But even you don't need my[D]opia
[F#m]An d I[D]'ll k[G]eep your proble[A]ms in vie[D]w[A]
You gotta [D]realize
[G]Though I may use my [D]words like [F#m]dirt
[D]I n[G]ever ever meant for you [D]to get hurt
[G]No, that was not my intent
[D]You[F#m] gotta[G] un[A]derstand[D]
[G]Though I'm critical [D]of [F#m]you
[G]Though I still deep and
truly [D]love [F#m]you
Al[G]though I [A]said what [D]I m[A]eant
So [Bm]don't take offense at each [F#m]thing
I say I [G]don't mean to hurt you,
it's [F#m]just my way
You [Em]just have to understand
That I am [G]only an [A]honest [D]man[G][D][A][D][A][D][G][D]
[A][D][A][D][G][D][A][D][A][C#]
