Biography:
Deborah Ann Gibson, credited as both Deborah Gibson and Debbie Gibson (born August 31, 1970 in Brooklyn, NY, United States), is an American singer-songwriter, and record producer who was initially a teen idol appearing repeatedly on the cover of such teen magazines as Tiger Beat. In contrast to the prevalence of the name Debbie in her teen-idol phase, she showed a preference for "Deborah" even then, and her fans had, before the release of Naked, signalled a departure from that image by using this name to refer to her.

[INTRO]
F F F Bb Dm C F Bb Dm C F F
Oh oh oh oh
No, I’m not where I wanna be
[VERSE 1]
F Am
Talking all the talk that makes me feel strong
Bb C
Going all the places where smiles greet me
F
Can't get it through my head
Am
that I did nothing wrong
Bb Am Dm
It would be easier if I had myself to blame
Bb C F
But it's pouring rain under my umbrella
[CHORUS]
F Bb
I tried walking around,
Dm
'round these streets by myself
C
Said "Pretty girl don't look down"
F
But I could look no place else
Bb
The smiles, the bed, the telephone
Dm
And still I can't make him see
C
I can't call this life my own
F Gm Am
Cause I'm not where I wanna be
[VERSE 2]
F Am
Going out with the girls on a Saturday night
Bb
Reaching out to strangers
C F
So I don't feel deeply moved
Am
Yeah they're my friends and I like them alright
Bb Am Dm
But they can't do the things that we used to do
Bb C F
So I've got to say that I miss you baby
[CHORUS]
