Em
What if I change the things I say
                      D
so it sounds better in your ears
          C
I can tell you exactly
                             D
what you want to hear

                Em
What if i change the way i dress
                     D
So it looks better from your view
          C
I can pout my lips to fame
             B                        Am   / D
and be pretty instead of true

Em / D / C / B
I?ve been trying to stay real
and true and proud of who I am
All those ideals of how to look
I?ve been trying not to care

Em / D / C / B
But I?m still holding my breath
I?m still watching every step
I?m still tip-toeing away
when I?m getting to ashamed of myself

Am / D

I don?t want to be your let down
                                     C
I?m scared like hell I?m not enough
                G                             D
I don?t to be your failure anymore

                               Em 
I don?t want to be your let down
                                   C
I?m screaming loud without a sound
                       G
Have to find a way to
                      D
be the best of me
B                                            Em
Failure scares the hell out of me

Em / D / C / B
And the music that they?re liking
says nothing about the way
That I am disappearing
so I?ll keep it to myself

Em / D / C / B
Though I?m mostly quiet
I?ve got a lot to say
but nothing seems to please you
so I?ll keep it to myself  

Am / D

C                                        D
If I?m not good enough for you
                                           Em
Am I not good enough for you?
                      Em
Your expectations I can?t live up to, no

C                                 D
I just want to be someone
                                        Em
To mean something to anyone
                     Em
I?ve got to hurry up to be someone

C                               B
I am fading can you wake me up
              Em                               Em
So I can be, all those things that I?ve been dreaming of
C                                    B                    C   /   D
I?m the fall, this is the cutting of my wings   
Em 
Oh you?re killing my belief
             D
to be myself
                                C               B
and if I can?t make my own way I quit
C / D / Em
Yeah
