How am I ever gonna be me

How am I ever gonna be me, lord

How am I ever gonna be me

If I'm not who I'm supposed to be

A mothers son, a fathers boy

A brothers friend, a sisters joy

An uncle cool, a cousin true

And who knows a father too

A shy recluse who once shut in

A patriot, a citizen

Why was I born a mystery

How am I ever gonna be me

How am I ever gonna do right
F C
How am I ever gonna do right lord
F C
How am I ever gonna do right
G Am
And do what's good in your sight
G Am
Sometimes my best is good enough
G Am
Sometimes I bluff that I am tough
G Am
I've turned my cheek instead of fight
G Am
And made them wrong when they were right
G Am
If you help those who help themselves
G Am
How comes the meek don't fare so well
G Am
And I have prayed with all my might
G C
How am I ever gonna do right

When I have lived a life depraved

I've worshipped money, murdered Cain
G Am
Used your name sometimes in vain
G Am
Worked on Sundays, rocked and rolled
G Am
Wanted bad enough I've stole
G Am
She came to me what was next door
G Am
It's not like we had met before
G Am
Oh tell me what else can I say
G C
How am I ever gonna be saved

How am I ever gonna find peace, lord

How am I ever gonna find peace
G Am
Will it be on a golden street
G Am
With big parades and pretty girls
G Am
Cotton candy colored swirls
G Am
Waving fields of springtime sun
G Am
That wars been never waged upon
G Am
My lovers arms, my first release
G C
How am I ever gonna find peace
