[Verse]
C Dm
I don't need to be anything other
A
Than a prison guard's son
C Dm
I don't need to be anything other
A
Than a specialist's son
C Dm
I don't have to be anything other
A
Than the birth of two souls in one
C Dm A
Part of where I'm going, is knowing where I'm coming from
[Chorus]
G D
I don't want to be
A E
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
G D
All I have to do
A E
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
G D
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
A
Wondering what I've got to do
E
Or who I'm supposed to be
G D A E
I don't want to be anything other than me
[Verse]
C Dm A
I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
C Dm A
I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
C Dm A
I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
C Dm A
Am I the only one who noticed?
C Dm A
I can't be the only one who's learned
[Chorus]
G D
I don't want to be
A E
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
G D
All I have to do
A E
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
G D
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
A
Wondering what I've got to do
E
Or who I'm supposed to be
G D A E
I don't want to be anything other than me
[Bridge]
C Dm E
Can I have everyone's attention please?
N.C (C Dm Em)
If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave
N.C. (C Dm Em)
I came from the mountain
N.C. (C Dm Em)
The crust of creation
N.C C Dm Em
My whole situtaion-made from clay to stone
C Dm Em
And now I'm telling everybody
(strum one per chord)
[Chorus]
G D
I don't want to be
A E
Anything other that what I've been trying to be lately
G D
All I have to do
A E
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
(start strumming again)
G D
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
A
Wondering what I've got to do
E
Or who I'm supposed to be
G D A E
I don't want to be anything other than me
G D A E
I don't want to be
