[Verse 1]
Dm
I'm hardly perfect
C
I'm barely good
C                    Am    Dm
Just shy of greatness, ah-ah ah
Dm
I'm heavy metal
C
And hollow wood
C                   Am    Dm
Just shy of patience, ah-ah ah


[Chorus]
Dm
Me, I want to walk a little bit taller, oh
C
Me, I want to feel a little bit stronger, oh
C
Me, I want to think a little bit smarter
     Am                    Dm
Said I just want to be the best
Dm
Me, I want to walk a little bit taller, oh
C
Me, I want to feel a little bit stronger, oh
C
Me, I want to think a little bit smarter
     Am                    Dm
Said I just want to be the best


[Post-Chorus]
Dm C

Am                 Dm
I just wanna be the   best

Dm C

Am                 Dm
I just wanna be the   best


[Verse 2]
Dm
Oh doctor, doctor
C
I have no clue
C               Am    Dm
Of modern beauty, ah-ah ah
Dm
So fix my face up
C
With diet glue
C                  Am    Dm
And science fiction, ah-ah ah


[Chorus]
Dm
Me, I want to walk a little bit taller, oh
C
Me, I want to feel a little bit stronger, oh
C
Me, I want to think a little bit smarter
     Am                    Dm
Said I just want to be the best
Dm
Me, I want to walk a little bit taller, oh
C
Me, I want to feel a little bit stronger, oh
C
Me, I want to think a little bit smarter
     Am                    Dm
Said I just want to be the best


[Post-Chorus]

Am                 Dm
I just wanna be the   best

Am                 Dm
I just wanna be the   best

[Chorus]
Dm
Me, I want to walk a little bit taller, oh

Me, I want to think a little bit smarter
     Am                    Dm
Said I just want to be the best
