Tom: Am
Dm
What if I change the things I say
C
so it sounds better in your ears
F
I can tell you exactly
C
what you want to hear
Dm
What if i change the way i dress
C
So it looks better from your view
F
I can pout my lips to fame
E Dm / C
and be pretty instead of true
Dm / C / F / E
I’ve been trying to stay real
and true and proud of who I am
All those ideals of how to look
I’ve been trying not to care
Dm / C / F / E
But I’m still holding my breath
I’m still watching every step
I’m still tip-toeing away
when I’m getting to ashamed of myself
Dm / C
Ref:
Dm
I don’t want to be your let down
F
I’m scared like hell I’m not enough
C C
I don’t to be your failure anymore
Dm
I don’t want to be your let down
F
I’m screaming loud without a sound
C
Have to find a way to
C
be the best of me
E Dm
Failure scares the hell out of me
Dm / C / F / E
And the music that they’re liking
says nothing about the way
That I am disappearing
so I’ll keep it to myself
Dm / C / F / E
Though I’m mostly quiet
I’ve got a lot to say
but nothing seems to please you
so I’ll keep it to myself
Dm / C

Mid8:
F C
If I’m not good enough for you
Dm
Am I not good enough for you?
Dm
Your expectations I can’t live up to, no
F C
I just want to be someone
Dm
To mean something to anyone
Dm
I’ve got to hurry up to be someone
F E
I am fading can you wake me up
Dm Dm
So I can be, all those things that I’ve been dreaming of
F E F / C
I’m the fall, this is the cutting of my wings
Dm
Oh you’re killing my belief
C
to be myself
F E
and if I can’t make my own way I quit
F / C / Dm
Yeah
