[Verse 1]
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
I don’t need to be anything other than a prison guard’s son
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
I don’t need to be anything other than a specialist’s son
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
I don’t have to be anyone other than the birth of two souls in one
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
Part of where I’m going is knowing where I’m coming from

[Chorus]
G D A Bm A
I don’t want to be anything other than what I’ve been trying to be lately
G D A Bm A
All I have to do is think of me and I have peace of mind
G D A
I’m tired of looking ‘round rooms wondering what I gotta do
Bm A
Or who I’m supposed to be
G D A Bm
I don’t want to be anything other than me

[Verse 2]
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
I’m surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
I’m surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
Asus2 Bsus4 Asus2 Bsus4
I’m surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
Asus2 Bsus4
Am I the only one to notice?
Asus2 Bsus4
I can’t be the only one who’s learned

[Chorus]

[Bridge (I think they use high barré's here)]
F#m Bsus2 F#m Bm
Can I have everyone’s attention please
F#m Bsus2
If you're not like this and that
F#m Bm
You’re gonna have to leave
E D Bm E D Bm
I came from the mountain, the crust of creation
E D Bm D
My whole situation made from clay to stone
E F# G
And now I’m telling everybody

[Chorus (starts with piano only, same chords)]


[Outro (uses chorus chords)]
I don’t want to be
I don’t want to be me (repeat until fade)
