[Verse 1]
F# C# F# C#
i could never find the power to love
F# C# G# C#
voice of reasons' always giving up on me
F# C# F# C#
i could never find the power to leave
F# C# G# C#
fear of change is always catching up with me
[Pre-Chorus]
F# C# F# C#
it's over again and it's started again
F# C# G# C#
swear i hurt you with the best intentions
F# C# F# C#
and it's over again and it's started again
F# C# G# C#
swear my conscience needs an intervention
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
i've been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
F# C# G#
won't you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
[Verse 2]
F# C# F# C#
i could never find the power to lie
F# C# G# C#
even when i did the guilt would catch my eye
F# C# F# C#
i could never find the power to see
F# C# G# C#
all the blessings that had been shone down on me
[Pre-Chorus]
F# C# F# C#
it's over again and it's started again
F# C# G# C#
swear i hurt you with the best intentions
F# C# F# C#
and it's over again and it's started again
F# C# G# C#
swear my conscience needs an intervention
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
i've been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
F# C# G#
won't you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
F# C# G#
i've been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
F# C# G#
won't you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
[Bridge]
F#
and we're strangers again
C#
yeah we're strangers again
A#
seeing everyone through clouds of emotion
F#
and we're strangers again
C#
yeah we're strangers again
A#
breaking everything but all in slow motion
[Instrumental]
F# C# A# F# C# A#
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
i've been trying to change myself again
F# C# G#
won't you please just take me as i am
F# C# G#
i've been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
F# C# G#
won't you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
F# C# G#
i've been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
F# C# G#
won't you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
[Outro]
F# C# F# C#
i could never find the power to know
F# C# G# C#
guess i'll figure it out on my own
