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!

E
So your best friend screwed you over
A
Acted nice when she’s not nice
B7
Well I have some advice
A
‘Cause it’s happened to me Twice

E
Here’s my secret strategy
A
It always works because
B7
The world doesn’t end
A
It just feels like it does

E A
So raise your right finger
B7 A
And solemnly swear
E A
Whatever they say about me
B7 A
I don’t care

E
I won’t twist in knots to join your game
A
I will say you make me mad
B7
And if you treat me bad
A
I’ll say “you’re bad”

E
And if I eat alone from this moment on
A
That’s just what I’ll do

E
‘Cause I’d rather be me
A
I’d rather be me
B7 A
I’d rather be me
E
than be with you

E
We’re supposed to all be ladies
A
And be nurturing and care
B7
Is that really fair
A
Boys get to fight we have to share

E
Here’s the way that turns out
A
We always understand
B7
How to slap someone down
A
With our underhand

E A
So here’s my right finger
B7 A
To how girls should behave
E A
Cause sometimes what’s meant to break you
B7 A
Makes you brave

E
So I will not act all innocent
A
I won’t fake apologize
B7
Let’s just fight and then make up
A
Not tell these lies

E
Let’s call our damage even
A
Clean the slate till it's like new

E
It’s a new life for me
A
Where I’d rather be me
B7 A
I’d rather be me
E
Than be with you

G#
I'll say NO
F#
I’ll say knock it off with your notes and your rules and your games
G#
And those sycophants who follow you

I’ll remember all their names
C#
And when they drag you down
F#
Like they inevitably do
G#
I will not laugh along with them
B C# E
and approve their palace coup ‘cause that’s not me

E
I don’t need their good opinions
A
I have plenty of opinions
B7
Everybody has opinions
A
but it doesn’t make them true

E
What’s true is being me
A
And I’d rather be me
B7 A
I’d rather be me
E
than be with you

E
So raise them high
A
‘cause playing nice and shy
B7 A
is insulting my IQ

E A
I'd Rather Be Me
E
I'd Rather Be Me
A E
I'd Rather Be Me than be with you
A
I'd Rather Be Me
E
I'd Rather Be Me
A E
I'd Rather Be Me than be with you
