IT IS WHAT IT IS

written by Stephen Burton and John Fleming

performed by Waylon Jennings
Kris Kristofferson
Willie Nelson
Johnny Cash

Verse 1:
I'[E]ve been obnoxious

I've been unconscious

I've been all kinds of things that are hard to spell
I've been un[A]ruly

Speakin' truly

I've been so cool i couldn't hardly even stand myself

Verse 2:
I've been a mon[E]ster

Without a sponsor

I've been Dr. Jekill and Mr. Hyde
I've been a g[A]oner

I've been a loner

And when my mixture was right

Hell,i'm a nice bunch of guys

Chorus:
I [B]am what i am 'cause i ain't what i us[A]ed to [E]be
'C[B]ause it is what it is but it ain't what it u[A]sed to [E]be

Verse 3:
I been a mo[E]ver

I was a shaker

You had a girlfriend

I tried to snake her
I've been myste[A]rious

I've been delirious

I've been so weird it would have killed a normal man

Verse 4:
I wanted mo[E]ney

I wanted power

I want a monument

Kind of like the Eiffel Tower
I've been lo[A]st at sea

I've been lost in space

And when i fall in love

I fall all over the place

Chorus.

Verse 5:
An[A]d you can go on forever and make the same mystakes
Or y[B]ou can stand up on your hind legs and change your fate
Go [A]on and do until you finally see
Wha[B]t it is that you was that you don't want to be

Verse 6:
I was an out[E]law

I was an in-law

I was a scapegoat

That was the last straw
I hit the hig[A]hway

Singin' my way

But it wound up sounding like you'll never walk alone

Verse 7:
I got a st[E]ory

Reflected glory

Is the way that i've been seein' for most of my life
I heard the laugh[A]ter

Up in the rafter

But i never ever thought that the joke was on me

Chorus(x2).
