                   LEAD-IN:  ( F C ) ( G )  C  ( Am7 G )
      ( F               C )        ( F             C )
You can hear praise and insults mere mortals can't sense.
      ( F              Am7 )     ( Dm7        G ) 
you can talk about the weather and yet take offense,
      ( F           C )           ( G7             Am7 )
you can meet cancer patients and discuss your cold sores,
      ( F         C )          ( G         Am7 )
    and anybody's stories can be topped by yours.

CHORUS:
            F                ( G       C )
'Cause it's all about you, whatever it is.
            F                 ( D7      G )
 You're the reason the universe has to exist.
          ( F )         C         ( Em7      Am )
    If your world seems small, it's probably true
          ( F            C )  ( G )       C         ( Am7 G )
     'cause everything's always all about you.


So you got behind a pileup on the highway last night,
and you had to wait an hour while the cops cleared the site
an' the ambulances carried a family away,
but to hear you tell the story you suffered more than they,

CHORUS


G                 ( F )    C
Anything anyone can say or do,
   ( Am         Dm )     ( G )       C
once said, once done, it's all about you.


I was findin' you a gift that couldn't go wrong,
so I got out my guitar an' I wrote you this song.
It'll never win applause from critics, it's true
but you'll love it because it's all about you.

CHORUS
