d e d e
please don’t mistake me or try to make me
d e a

d c#m bm [1, 2: repeat intro 3: to coda]
i am what i am and that’s all i ever can be
verse 2:
don’t try to plan me or understand me
i can’t stand to be understood
i could never give in to or ever live up to
being like you think i should
i’ve got some inner need that i’m tryin’ to heed
i can’t take hand-me-down destiny
[repeat chorus]
verse 3:
don’t try to change me or rearrange me
to satisfy the selfishness in you
i’m not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day
and i’m not a p-wn to be told how to move
i’m sorry i ain’t the fool you thought would play by your rules
a to-each-is-own philosophy
[repeat chorus]
coda:
a
(…be)
d e a
i said that’s all i ever can be [repeat to fade]
