Akon - Once In A While
The chords are the same throughout the whole song
B G#m D#m
B
Cause everyday I can't help but see it
G#m
People ain't satisfied
D#m
And you're hatin' your 9 to 5
Everybody wanna live another life
B G#m
But every goal or mountain you climb
D#m
Not to better your day
B
That do leave room for people to say
I guess you're livin' better now
G#m
Share a little of that cheddar now
D#m
Cause I remember days back when
A brother was hustlin and robbin' too
B
I done tossed up a letter now
G#m
On a whole nother level now
D#m
Still I can't enjoy my fame
Unless my people doin' the same
B...
And gettin' money too..
