(Capo on 2) 

Sometimes I (D)speak too fast, (G) my temper's just as (D)quick (G)
Yeah I (D)drive too fast, (G) guess that's just how I (D)live (G)
I've earned every (D)scar I've got, (G) learned a lot of things the (D)hard way (G)
No, I (A)ain't quite been the pillar of (G)this community
(C/G) But I've (G)always been (D) me

(Chorus)
I'll (D)take the blame when it's my fault, (G)get knocked down and stand up tall
Screamin', "(D)Bring it on, I ain't (G) scared!"
Never gone (D)out of my way or acted fake to im-(G)press anyone and that's okay
Sometimes (D)I'm too proud, too loud, what you (G)get is what you see
I've been (Bm)called it all from bad news to a (G)crazy S.O.B.
But I've always been (D) me

(D)My last name, (G) I'll defend it 'til I'm (D)gone (G)
I try to (D)do what's right, (G) sometimes it comes out (D) all wrong (G)
Hell, I've (A)never been an angel and I'll (G)never claim to be
(C/G) But I've (G)always been (D) me

(Chorus)
I'll (D)take the blame when it's my fault, (G)get knocked down and stand up tall
Screamin', "(D)Bring it on, I ain't (G) scared!"
Never gone (D)out of my way or acted fake to im-(G)press anyone and that's okay
Sometimes (D)I'm too proud, too loud, what you (G)get is what you see
I've been (Bm)called it all from bad news to a (G)crazy S.O.B.
But I've always been (D) me

Yeah, (Bm)I don't make excuses for none of my mistakes
I am (G) what I am and I ain't what I ain't

(Chorus)
I'll (D)take the blame when it's my fault, (G)get knocked down and stand up tall
Screamin', "(D)Bring it on, I ain't (G) scared!"
Never gone (D)out of my way or acted fake to im-(G)press anyone and that's okay
Sometimes (D)I'm too proud, too loud, what you (G)get is what you see
I've been (Bm)called it all from bad news to a (G)crazy S.O.B.
But I've always been (D) me

(Tag)
(G) Hell, and I'll always (D) be (G)
