Outta My System

E
Told me not to smoke drugs, but I 
wouldn't listen
E
Never thought I'd get caught and 
wind up in prison
A
Chalk it up to youth, but young age 
I ain't dissin'
E
I guess I just had to get it outta 
my system
B               A
Outta my system, outta my system
B
Oh lord I'd never do it now I know 
what I ain't missing
A                                 
I'm glad I went and got it all 
             E
outta my system

E
The luster of youth versus married 
security
E
I'm glad I'm here now, but just 
between you and me
A
I had to get out and make the deals
E
And learn to know how it feels but 
that it ain't real
Continues after the ad
B                A
Outta my system, whoa outta my 
system
B
There's a way to have it all you 
know I ain't kidding
A                                 
Some things I know I'll never get 
               E
outta my system

       A
If you don't live now you ain't even
 trying
 E
And then you on your way to a 
mid-life crisis
 B                         B
Livin it out, any way you feel
E
You can feel it in your bones, but 
try to deny it
A
Wipe it off your face but your eyes 
won't hide it
B                              
You knew it all along, but never 
             B
