Somebody New

Capo: 2nd fret

[Intro]
   G B7 C Cm
Ok,       I'm gonna do it like that
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                      B7
  I never got with the program
                          C
The teacher would call me out
 
For daydreamin' I was like
 Cm
"Dayum, I'll just hop out"
G                    B7
  I cried into soggy cornflakes
                       C
My mom sent me back to school
                     Cm
Cause nobody wants a flunky in grade two
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
  G
I wanna speak facts but I can barely breathe
  B7
I wanna bring myself out but I'm in too deep
     C
I've always had this intensity
  Cm
I guess that's just what makes me, me
 
 
[Chorus]
                    G
How am I suppose to be myself
                     B7
If I'm always taking notes from someone else
    C                          Cm
And everything I do seems to offend somebody new
                G
I've been tryna love myself
             B7
And never compare to someone else
      C                             Cm
Cause everything I do makes me feel like somebody new
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                      B7
  I never got A's that easy
                            C
The summer didn't last that long
 
I spent it on a halfpipe
 Cm
"Dayum, I'll just drop in"
G                           B7
  I tie my Vans with broken laces
                             C
Got green paint stains on my jeans
                         Cm
Guess I'll graduate with braces on my teeth
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
  G
I wanna run track when it's time to walk
  B7
I wanna speak up when it's wrong to not
     C
I've always had this integrity
  Cm
I guess that's just what makes me, me
 
 
[Chorus]
                    G
How am I suppose to be myself
                     B7
If I'm always taking notes from someone else
    C                          Cm
And everything I do seems to offend somebody new
                G
I've been tryna love myself
             B7
And never compare to someone else
      C                             Cm
Cause everything I do makes me feel like somebody new
 
 
[Bridge]
              G
This is how I do
              B7
This is how I be
  C
I know sometimes my socks don't match
  Cm
I guess it's in my genes
              G
This is how I do
              B7
This is how I be
   C
It may not seem like much to you
    Cm
But it's enough for me
 
 
[Instrumental]
G B7 C Cm 
(x2)
 
 
[Outro]
G                     B7
  Ooh, you know how I do
                       C
And you know that it's true
       Cm
So let me be me and I'll let you be you
