The Way I Do

Tom: Dm

C                 Am
When they say you can't love
          Em
I think you've got it wrong
              Am
They say you can't feel
         F
With a heart made of steel
         G
But you can't say that steel ain't strong
         C
Well if that's who you are
         Am                  Em
Just a meaningless star in the sky
         Am
Tell me what is the meaning
    F                    G
Of what I am feeling if you are the reason why
              Am
Now I may be dumb
                 C7
But where I come from
                   F
Folks say they're fine
F                         Dm
When I know that they're blue
               F            G    C
But you don't know you the way I do

[Mega-Girl]
C                Am
Your kind is frail and weak
              Em
And I want to destroy you all
          Am
You're a sorry disgrace
        F
To the concept of race
       G
And to logical science and law
       C
But for some reason why
        Am                   Em
When you look at me I don't wanna be
Am
Programmed this way
   F                         G
Believe when I say you're the one anomaly
                Am
You might not be smart
               C7
But there is a part
            F
Of me that's starting
F                   Dm
To make a breakthrough
              F            G      C
No you don't know you the way I do

[Tootsie and Mega-Girl]
   Am           F        Am             G
I never expected to find something like you
My wires are protected from abnormal things like you
     Am            F             Am           Gm
I don't know anything but you're giving me a clue
When you know everything it is suddenly strange when you don't have a clue

[Tootsie and Mega-Girl]
           Am   G   Am G
I can see past the surface
A
Finding the worth
        F
That is hiding beneath
       Am   G  Am  G
Your life and purpose
    Am
And all of sudden
                F          A
I feel like I've run into something
A
That no one has seen

[February and Bug]
        C
You're perfect and wonderful
Am               Em
How I hoped you'd be
February I
         C
But it's really enough
     F               G
For you to be just a human being
There's something I need to tell you
        C
And I know you'll agree
               Am                               Em
That's all we need to make all of our dreams come true
You're a dream come true
         Am
If this life has an ending
But I need to
      F                           G
I'm glad that I'm spending this short little time with you
Say something to you

[February and Bug Tootsie and Mega-Girl]
            Am
I'm so much more
So much more than
              C7
Than what you thought before
F                       Dm
Now that we have gotten to
What you thought you knew

[February]
         C
Get to know you

Tootsie and Mega-Girl
           A
You don't know you

[Bug]
               F
But you don't know me

[All]
    G     C
The way I do
