Im Not Like Everybody Else

Biography:

The Kinks (1963–1996; 2018-present) is an English pop-rock group that came out of the British R&B scene of the early 1960s. Formed in Muswell Hill, North London, by brothers Ray Davies and Dave Davies in 1964 and categorised in the United States as a "British Invasion" band, the Kinks are recognised as one of the most important and influential rock groups of the era. In 1990, their first year of eligibility, the original four members were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

This song is a great B-side by The Kinks. The song appears on the 1998's Face
To Face reissue CD as a bonus track.
Originally "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" was released as the B-side of "Sunny
Afternoon" in 1966. Shoulda been an A-side.

[Intro]

Am (strum)

[Verse]

G D (hammer on to Dsus4 then pull off back to D)
I won't take all that they hand me down
Am Em
And make out a smile though I wear a frown
G D (hammer on to Dsus4 then pull off back to D)
And I'm not gonna take it all lying down
Am Em
Cuz once I get started I go to town

[Chorus]

Em D (hammer on to Dsus4 then pull off back to D)
I'm not like everybody else
Am Em
I'm not like everybody else
Em D (hammer on to Dsus4 then pull off back to D)
I'm not like everybody else
Am Em
I'm not like everybody else
Em D A
And I don't want to walk about like everybody else
Em D A
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else
Em D A
And I won't say that I feel fine like everybody else

Asus2 Em
(Oooooooooh ooooooooh)
Cuz I'm not like everybody else
Asus2 Em
(Oooooooooh ooooooooh)
I'm not like everybody else

[Verse 2]

But darling you know that I love you true
Do anything that you want me to
Confess all my sins like you want me to
There's one thing that I will say to you

[Chorus]

Em D (hammer on to Dsus4 then pull off back to D)
I'm not like everybody else
Am Em
I'm not like everybody else
Em D (hammer on to Dsus4 then pull off back to D)
I'm not like everybody else
Am Em
I'm not like everybody else
Em D A
And I don't want to walk about like everybody else
Em D A
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else
Em D A
And I won't say that I feel fine like everybody else

Asus2 Em
(Oooooooooh ooooooooh)
Cuz I'm not like everybody else
Asus2 Em
(Oooooooooh ooooooooh)
I'm not like everybody else

Em
Like everybody else
Em
Like everybody else
Em
Like everybody else
Em
Like everybody else

Em for a couple of bars

[Verse 3]

If you all want me to settle down
Slow up and stop all my running 'round
Do everything like you want me to
There's one thing that I will say to you

[Chorus]

(Note that in the last chorus' last line Ray sings "I don't want to say goodbye like everybody else"
instead of "I won't say that I feel fine like everybody else")

After the last chorus:

Em
Like everybody else (like everybody else)
Em
Like everybody else (like everybody else)
Em
Like everybody else (like everybody else)
Em
Like everybody else
