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

At least I tried
E
Well at least I uh
