[Verse 1]
D
Here it is: a new confession
Bm G
You're a rather intelligent adolescent
D
And that's who you are, I learned my lesson
Bm Em
I must not understand and just must be far too progressive
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
I never meant to be that way
Bm Em
I just wanted to be kind
D G
Maybe I just think too much
Bm D
It's only in my mind this time
[Chorus]
G A Bm
Oh I know I'm not everything you thought I was
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
G A
And oh I've tried you cried
D
I am not all you had thought
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Post Chorus]
G A
And I'll do my best my flesh
F#m
Is still gonna make mistakes
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
G A F#m
So please forgive if it's really just some big nickname
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Verse 2]
G
Here it is: a new perspective
D Bm G
I'm listening but in fair warning it's rather subjective
N.C.
Woah, so unexpected
D Bm
I know my friends but I'd rather bathe in my self-rejection
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
D G Bm
I never meant to be that way
Bm Em
But I know I am sometimes
D G
Well maybe I just think too much
D
You were right It was only in my mind
[Chorus]
G A Bm D
Oh I know I'm not everything you thought I was
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
G A
And oh I've tried you cried
D Dm
I am not all you had thought
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Post Chorus]
G A
And I'll do my best my flesh
F#m
Is still gonna make mistakes
Bm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
G A Em
So please forgive if it's really just some big nickname
Bm G A
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
