B
My mama always told me
 C#m
You're gonna be somebody
 G#m                             E
There's never been someone like you
 B
I never should've listened
 C#m
But I was just a kid then
 G#m                           E
Took me a while to find the truth


[Pre-Chorus]
       B
And everybody else is just like
    C#m
Everybody else is just like
    G#m                      E
Everybody else is just like you
                B
You're like everybody else who tries like
    C#m
Everybody else who cries like
    G#m                       E
Everybody else who dies like you


[Chorus]
              B
You're not special
  C#m
Ooh
              G#m
You're not special
  E
Ooh


[Verse 2]
 B
Thrown out and had the door shut
 C#m
Kicked down but I got back up
      G#m                        E
It happens a million times each day
  B
Don't ever meet your heroes
 C#m
They're ordinary people
  G#m
They'll only let you down
            E
I love the hard way, always the hard way


[Pre-Chorus]
       B
And everybody else is just like
    C#m
Everybody else is just like
    G#m                      E
Everybody else is just like you
                B
You're like everybody else who tries like
    C#m
Everybody else who cries like
    G#m                       E
Everybody else who dies like you


[Chorus]
              B
You're not special
 C#m
Ooh
              G#m
You're not special
  E
Ooh
           B
I'm not special
 C#m
Ooh
              G#m
We're not special
 E
Ooh


[Bridge]
           F#     E
Won't you lie to me?
             F#    E
Please just lie to me
         F#     G#m
Someone lie to me
                   E
'Cause I love the hard way, always the hard way
 B
My mama always told me
 C#m
You're gonna be somebody
 G#m                             E
There's never been someone like you


[Pre-Chorus]
       B
And everybody else is just like
    C#m
Everybody else is just like
    G#m                      E
Everybody else is just like you
                B
You're like everybody else who tries like
    C#m
Everybody else who cries like
    G#m                       E
Everybody else who dies like you


[Chorus]
              B
You're not special

              G#m
You're not special

 E
Ooh
           B
I'm not special

(Everybody else who tries like)
 C#m
Ooh

(Everybody else who cries like)
             G#m
We're not special

(Everybody else who dies like you)
  E
Ooh
            B
No one's special
