C                    F                         G
Things are getting weird, things are getting tough
                    F                        C
Nothing's making sense but you keep on looking up
                      F                        G
They tell you to be true, you're trying every day
                     F                         C
You keep it on the real, still you gotta find a way
                     F                      G
To make your mama happy, to make your papa proud
                 Am                G             F
You gotta turn it up but all you hear is turn it down


[Pre Chorus]
F                   C         
So gather round I'm here to say
F                    C         
You'll never make everybody's day
F                         C           
But while you're around you might as well
D                        F
Catch the tiger by his tail


[Chorus]
     C
And hang on hang on hang on
F
Everybody just
G                      F
Get on get on get on get started
C                    F
Just go on go on go on
               D      F
Everybody just hold on


[Verse 2]
C                     F                    G
Sometimes I wanna cry and throw the towel in
                      F                    C
They try to beat me down but I'll take it on the chin
                      F                 G
And everywhere I go the people are the same
                     F                   C
They just wanna know that everything will be OK
                     F                    G
Things are getting rough, you'll turn it back around
                   Am            G                F
You gotta turn it up when they tell you tone it down


[Pre-Chorus]
F                   C         
So gather round I'm here to say
F                    C         
You'll never make everybody's day
F                         C           
But while you're around you might as well
D                        F
Catch the tiger by his tail

[Chorus]
     C
And hang on hang on hang on
F
Everybody just
G                      F
Get on get on get on get started
C                    F
Just go on go on go on
               D      F
Everybody just hold on
      G    F          C
Just get oh  - oh - onnnnnn
