What I Am

E C#m F#m B7


[Verse 1]
E
I said dreams don't come true

At least not for you
                  B7
If they do it's a mishap
E
You said you thought that too

And said that you knew
                      B7
Of a place where they made them


[Chorus]
F#m                  B7
I didn't wanna be the person I am
E                 C#m
My personality was changing every day
F#m                            B7
And I got the feeling that you wanted me gone
E                     B7                   E   B7
So I decided I should take myself far from here


[Verse 2]
E
I need someone to hold

Until I'm old
                 B7
And I'm grey and unwanted
E
So I lifted my heart

And placed it at the start
                   B7
And that's where I asked you


[Chorus]
F#m                         B7
If you could love me for the person I am
E                      C#m
My personality is where it ought to be and
F#m                     B7
I have the feeling that I wanted to have
E                        Fm
I'm only waiting for the moment you told me
F#m             B7
You're over it moving on
E                 C#m
Getting old and I can't help but feel that
F#m             B7
I'm old enough staying still
E          A        B            E
Underneath wherever it is that I am


[Outro]
E C#m F#m B7  x2
