Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I am what I am[F#m]
I am my [Bm]own special creation
[Asus4]So come t[A]ake[D] a look[F#m]
Give me the [Bm]hook or the [Em]ova [A]tion

[Verse 2]
[A]
[D]It's my [F#]world that I [Bm]want to
have a [D]little pride [Esus4]in
My [E]world and it's not [Edim]a
place I have to hide in
[D]Life's not worth a dam[F#m]n
till you [Bm]can say
Hey world I [Em]am w[Asus4]hat I am
[D][E]

[Verse 3]
I am what I [Abm]am
I don't want [C#m]praise
I don't [F#m]want pity[B]
[E]I bang my own d[Abm]rum

[Verse 4]
Some think [C#m]it's noise
I think it's [F#m]pretty[B]
And [E]so [Abaug]what if I love each[C#m]
feather and [F#sus4]each spangle
[F#]Why not try and see [F#dim]things from
a [D]different [F#dim]angle

[Verse 5]
[E]
Your life [Abm]is a sham till you can [C#m]say
Hey world I [F#m]am wha[Bsus4]t I am[B][Bsus4][E]
[F]I am what I a[Am]m
And what [Dm]I am needs no ex[Gm]cuses[C]

[Verse 6]
[F]I deal my o[Am]wn deck
Sometimes [Dm]the ace
Sometimes [Gm]the deuces[C]
It's [F]my [A]life and [Dm]there's no

[Verse 7]
return and no deposit
[G]One life, so it's time to [Gm]open
[Gdim]up your clos[Eb]et
[Gm]Life[Eb]'s not w[F]orth a
[Am]damn till you can [Dm]say
Hey [Bdim]world I [E]am[A][Bb][Gm]
[Bb]what[Gm] I am[C][F]
