D#m                    E/B
Maybe your jacket is a hand-me-down
D#m                          E/B
Maybe you slept with half of your home town
D#m                         E/B         F#
In a world of circles maybe you're just round

      B     C#m     F#           B   C#m
You can't be  everybody's cup of tea,
              F#                    G#m
Some like the bitter some like the sweet
         D#m
Nobody's everybody's favorite
        E                               C#m F#
So you might just well make it how you please
          B     C#m    F#            B  C#m F#
Ow, you can't be everybody's cup of tea,

Maybe you're working at a hotel bar
Maybe you're still driving your high school car
Maybe you still don't know just who you are

Chorus:
You can't be everybody's cup of tea
Some like the bitter, some the sweet
Nobody's everybody's favorite,
so you might as well just make it how you please

Oh, maybe you married the wrong person first
Maybe your hair's way too long
Your sister's in jail
Or maybe you failed out of college
But, hey, life goes on
And we've all got the right to be wrong

Chorus:
'Cause you can't be everybody's cup of tea
Some like it black, some like it green
Nobody's everybody's favorite
So you might as well just make it how you please
'Cause you can't be everybody's cup of tea
Why would you wanna be?
