KEY: G

 G                                                                     Em

 I wanna be like Cal I wanna be consistent

                               C                                      D

 I wanna quit complainin I wanna carry on

                                       G                                            Em

 I wanna show up smilin I wanna push the limits

                       C                                    D

 I wanna play forever keep keepin' on

                                  G

 I wanna be like Cal

D                             Am

This world is a me mine place

            C                                   G

Where everybody wants  so many take

    D                            Am

One foot in with six steps out

C                                                          D

Take what you need and then get out

 CHORUS

D                                        Am

It's so damn easy to run run away

                  C                                G

When I fall behind at the first twitch of pain

          D                             Am

To rationalize and defend my escape

           C                                            D

But what could've been if I chose to stay?

 CHORUS

 A

 2131 the man showed up and everyone wasn’t fun

                   B

 When I look to my life for some kind of streak

 I see 20,000 times I fell asleep

 C

 Hear me now the old way's done

                                                                                               D

 It's a brand new me this is day number one

I’m gonna be like Cal…
