[Intro 1]
[F][F][C][Am]

[Verse 1]
[F]Here it is, a new confession
[C]You're a rather int[Am]elligent adolescent
[F]And that's who you are,
I learned my lesson
[C]I must not understand
and [Am]just must be far too progressive

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Dm]I ne[C]ver meant [F]to be that way
[Am]I just[Dm] wanted to be kind[Em]
[Dm]Well[C], maybe I ju[F]st think too much
It's [Am]only in my [C]mind this time

[Chorus 1]
And [F]oh, I know I'm [G]not everything [Am]you
[Em]thought I was
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)
And [F]oh, I tried you [G]cried,
I am not all [Em]you had thought
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)
And I'll [F]do my best,
my [G]flesh is still gonna [Em]make mistakes
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)
So [F]please forgive if [G]it's really just
some [Em]big nickname
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)

[Verse 2]
[F]Here it is, a new perspective
[C]I'm listening, but in fair war[Am]ning,
it's rather subjective
[F]Whoa, so unexpected
[C]I know my friends
but I'd rath[Am]er bathe in my self-rejection

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Dm]I ne[C]ver meant [F]to be that way
[Am]But I kn[Dm]ow I am sometim[Em]es
[Dm]Well[C], maybe I ju[F]st think too much
[C]You were right, it was only in my mind

[Chorus 2]
And [F]oh, I know I'm [G]not everything [Am]you
[Em]thought I was
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)
And [F]oh, I tried you [G]cried,
I am not all [Em]you had thought
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)
And I'll [F]do my best,
my [G]flesh is still gonna [Em]make mistakes
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)
So [F]please forgive if [G]it's really just
some [Em]big nickname
(Who you [Am]say you are is who you're not)

[Bridge 1]
[F]At [G]least I trie[Em]d, we[Am]ll, at least I
[F]tri[G]ed, at least I t[Em]ried
[Am]Well, at least I

[Outro 1]
[F](uh)[G][Em][Am]
