[Verse 1]
[G]Whe[Gsus4]ther I'm [C]rig[Gsus4]ht[C][G]
or whether I'm [Am]wrong[C][Gsus4][C]
[G]Whether I f[D]ind a place in this world
[G]I may never belong,
but I've got [C]to be [Bm]me
[G]I've got [C]to be me, [Bm]what else can [Em]I be,
[Bm]but [G]what[C] I am,[D]
Lord [Am]you know [G]I want to live,
[Gm]not[G][Am][G]
[Gsus4]And I can[C]'t [G]giv[D]e up this dream that keeps me alive,[G]
[C]I g[G]otta [C]be me, I gott[Bm]a be me, th[C]is[Bm]
dream that I [Em]see,
[Bm]it m[C]akes[D] me what I am.[G]
That [Bm]faraway [Bsus4]cry, a wo[B]rd of su[Em]ccess,
it's waiting [Am]for m[D]e.
If I heed [G]the call,
I won't [C]settle down or settle [Bm]for less.
As long [Em]as there's a half a chance, I can ha[C]ve it all,
[D]I'll hol[G]d on, that's how it must be.[Am][Gsus4][C][G][D][G]

me.
[Bm]That [Bsus4]far away [B]cross,
a [Em]world of success. I know it's [Am]waiting for [D]me.
If I heed the [G]call,
I won't settle [C]down or settle for [Bm]less.
[Em]As long as there's a half a chance, I can ha[C]ve it all,
[D]so [G]I'm gonna go it alone, and
that's the way it must [Am]be.[C][Gsus4][C]
[G]And [D]I can't be right for somebody else,
if I'm [G]not right for me.
I've got to [C]be.
[Bm]I've
I've got to [C]be free, [Bm]daring [Em]to try,
[Bm]do it or die, [C]I've[D] got to be[G] me.
