I Don't Want To Be Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][A][A][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[A]I don't need to be anything other
Than a prison guard's [G]son
[A]I don't need to be anything other
Than a specialist's [G]son
[A]I don't have to be anyone other
Than the birth of two [G]souls in [A]one
Part of where I'm going
is knowing where I'm [G]coming from

[Chorus 1]
[F]I don't wan[C]t to be
Anything [G]other than
what I've been [Am]trying to be [G]late[F]ly
All I [C]have to do is think of [G]me
and I have a peace of [Am]mind[G]
[F]I'm tired of loo[C]king 'round rooms
Wondering [G]what I've got to do
Or [Am]who I'm sup[G]posed to b[F]e
I don't [C]want to be anything [G]other than [Am]me

[Interlude 1]
[A][A][G]

[Verse 2]
[A]I'm surrounded by liars
everywhere [G]I turn
[A]I'm surrounded by impostors
everywhere [G]I turn
[A]I'm surrounded by identity crisis
everywhere [G]I turn
[A]Am I the only one who's noticed?
I can't be the only one [G]who's learned

[Chorus 2]
[F]I don't wan[C]t to be
Anything [G]other than
what I've been [Am]trying to be [G]late[F]ly
All I [C]have to do is think of [G]me
and I have a peace of [Am]mind[G]
[F]I'm tired of loo[C]king 'round rooms
Wondering [G]what I've got to do
Or [Am]who I'm sup[G]posed to b[F]e
I don't [C]want to be anything [G]other than [Am]me

[Bridge 1]
Can [Em]I have everyone's
attention please?
[Em]If you're not like this and that,
you're gonna have to [D]leave
I came from the mountain
The crust of creation
My whole situation made from [C]clay to stone
And [D]now I'm telling everybody

[Chorus 3]
[F]I don't wan[C]t to be
Anything [G]other than
what I've been [Am]trying to be [G]late[F]ly
All I [C]have to do is think of [G]me
and I have a peace of [Am]mind[G]
[F]I'm tired of loo[C]king 'round rooms
Wondering [G]what I've got to do
Or [Am]who I'm sup[G]posed to b[F]e
I don't [C]want to be anything [G]other than [Am]me

I don't [Am]want to [G]be any[F]thing
Anything [C]other than [G]me[Am][G]
