I feel like you see right through me,
B
And never ever really knew me-
              A         Am                E
Don't want to be around when you start to fall.

E
I've got to follow all of my dreams;
B
Gotta figure out what this life means-
              A         Am
Don't want to be around when you fall.

E
They say that life's an open book;
B
Turn the page and take another look.
C#        A        E
You can't judge me -- by my cover,
C#       A            E
It's not what you see -- but what you discover!

C#            A                E
Can't push me down, it'll come around,
                    B
Everything that you put me through-
A
I, I, I, I, I don't want to be like you...

(repeat intro)

E
I may be different, but I'm beautiful.
B
Every diamond's individual!
A        Am                  E
Everyone shines in their own way.

E
Kaleidoscopes have many different colors,
B
I'll never be just like all the others.
      A                    Am
Gotta open your mind, I'll prove you wrong.

Everything that you put me through-
A
I, I, I, I, I don't want to be like you...

Bridge: E, B, C#, A

E                             B
They say the grass is greener on the other side,
C#                          A
But from where I'm standing it looks just fine.
E                          B
I'll always be an outcast; I'll never get in line;
C#                           A
You keep on living your life and I'll live mine.
