[Chorus]
DmF
Work your thing out
Gm
Work your thing out
DmF
Work your thing out
Gm
Work your thing out
[Verse 1]
DmF
There's so many girls I hear you been running
GmAm
From the beautiful queen that you could be becoming
DmF
You can look at my palm and see the storm coming
Gm
Read the book of my life and see I've overcome it
(I don't want the drama, get lost)
DmF
Just because the length of your hair ain't long
GmAm
And they often criticize you for your skin tone
DmF
Wanna hold your head high 'cause you're a pretty woman
GmAm
Get your runway stride on and keep going
Girl, live your life
[Pre-Chorus]
DmF
I just wanna be myself (Yeah yeah)
GmAm
Don't sweat, girl, be yourself
Dm
Follow me, follow me, follow me
F
Girl, be yourself
GmAm
That's why I be myself
And I grew to love it
[Chorus]
Dm
Work your thing out
F
(Let 'em get mad, they gonna hate anyway)
Gm
Work your thing out
Am
(Don't you get that?)
Dm
Work your thing out
F
(Doesn't matter if you're going on with their plan)
Gm
Work your thing out
(They'll never be happy
Am
'Cause they're not happy with themselves)

[Verse 2]
DmF
Feelin' great because the light's on me
GmAm
Celebrating the things that everyone told me
DmF
Would never happen but God has put His hands on me
GmAm
And ain't a man alive could ever take it from me
DmF
Working with what I got, I gotta keep on (Keep on)
GmAm
Taking care of myself I wanna live long (Live long)
DmF
Ain't never ashamed what life did to me
GmAm
Wasn't afraid to change 'cause it was good for me
I wanna...
