       Am
if you try to be an icon
         F
then the icon becomes you
       C
if you try to be a model
      E
it'll catwalk over you
       Am
if you try to walk in straight shoes
           F
then these shoes will bend you too
       C
if you try to be a kid again
    E
the kid will kidnap you


[Refrein]
              C
you know it's true
            E                     
the guy you know well that's just 
Am
you
             F               C
and there is nothing you can do
            E                 
just like a door you can't get 
 Am
through
              F
when there is no-one left to fool
             E
don't go and drown in that old pool
              Am
don't kid yourself

         Am
so don't try to be an icon
        F
con the I inside of you
     C
that picture you've been painting
        E
doesn't look a thing like you
       Am
I'll agree that it's a nice try
    F
but when your paint is dry
       C
we are all just little icons
      E
super you and super I

              C

just like a door you can't get 
 Am
through
              F

  Am
I need someone to show me

just what I threw away
  C
I need a pretty angel
      E
to present it on a tray
       Am
you've never liked the icon
          F
said that guy looked pretty strange
           C
but you've never tried to change me
           E
and that's how came to change
