C            Dm                      Am
Today is my birthday and I'm riding high
 G                                 C
Hair is dripping, hiding that I'm terrified
             Dm                             Am
But this is summer, playing dumber than in fall
                        G
Everything I say falls right back into everything

C
I'm not in the swing of things
Dm
But what I really mean is
Am                          Em
Not in the swing of things yet

Am
Riding around on the bikes, we're still sane
G
I won't be her, tripping over onstage
C              Dm
Hey, it's all cool
Am
I still like hotels, but I think that'll change
G
Still like hotels and my newfound fame
 F
Hey, promise I can stay good

G
(Everything feels right)
                                     F
I'm little, but I'm coming for the crown
                    Am         G
I'm little, but I'm coming for you
(Chase paper, get by)
                                   F
I'm little but I'm coming for the title held by everyone who's up

Chorus:
 C                    Dm
All work and no play never made me lose it
Am                   G
All business, all day keeps me up a level
All work and no play keeps me on the new shit, yeah
All work and no play, let me count the bruises
All business, all day keeps me up a level
All work and no play, lonely on that new shit, yeah
Yeah

Only bad people live to see
Their likeness set in stone
Only bad people live to see
Their likeness set in stone
What does that make me?

I'm not in the swing of things
But what I really mean is
Not in the swing of things yet
I'm not in the swing of things
But what I really mean is
Not in the swing of things yet

Chorus:
All work and no play never made me lose it
All business, all day keeps me up a level
All work and no play keeps me on the new shit, yeah
