[Verse 1]
G#
Here it is: a new confession
Fm C#
You're a rather intelligent adolescent
G#
And that's who you are, I learned my lesson
Fm A#m
I must not understand and just must be far too progressive
[Pre-Chorus]
G# C#
I never meant to be that way
Fm A#m
I just wanted to be kind
G# C#
Maybe I just think too much
Fm G#
It's only in my mind this time
[Chorus]
C# D# Fm
Oh I know I'm not everything you thought I was
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
C# D#
And oh I've tried you cried
G#
I am not all you had thought
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Post Chorus]
C# D#
And I'll do my best my flesh
Cm
Is still gonna make mistakes
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
C# D# Cm
So please forgive if it's really just some big nickname
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)

[Pre-Chorus]
A#m
G# C# Fm

Fm A#m
But I know I am sometimes
G# C#
Well maybe I just think too much
G#
You were right It was only in my mind
[Chorus]
C# D# Fm G#
Oh I know I'm not everything you thought I was
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
C# D#
And oh I've tried you cried
G# G#m
I am not all you had thought
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Post Chorus]
C# D#
And I'll do my best my flesh
Cm
Is still gonna make mistakes
Fm
(Who you say you are is who you're not)

So please forgive if it's really just some big nickname
Fm C# D#
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
