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


Chorus

G       D
 I don't want to be
         A                        Bm
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
G       D
  All I have to do
           A                     Bm
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
G             D
  I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
          A
Wondering what I've got to do
    Bm
Or who I'm supposed to be
G        D                  A             Bm
  I don't want to be anything other than me

I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
Am I the only one who noticed?
I can't be the only one who's learned


Chorus

G       D
 I don't want to be
         A                        Bm
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
G       D
  All I have to do
            A                     Bm
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
G             D
  I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
          A
Wondering what I've got to do
    Bm
Or who I'm supposed to be
G        D                  A             Bm
  I don't want to be anything other than me


Bridge:


Bm   A                               Bm
     Can I have everyone's attention please?

     If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave

Bm                            A
     I came from the mountain
Bm                           A
     The crust of creation
Bm                     A     G
     My whole situtaion-made from clay to stone
    A
And now I'm telling everybody

  All I have to do
            A                     Bm
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
G             D
  I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
          A
Wondering what I've got to do
