Am        G        F
Pretty soon you have to deal
          Am     G         F       
With the truth behind the way you feel
         Am     G      F   
And I'd rather never know

[Pre-Chorus]
    F                          G
I would do anything, anything not to bring who I am to meet me
F                            G                        C 
This useless suffering ugly part of me is screwing me as it feeds me

[Chorus]
Am          G
But it is, what it is
     Em                F         C  
You don't know how to live with what it is
Am        G                    
But it is what it is, 
   Em          F       C    
it may seem impossible
Am  G  Em           F       C   Am
But I will embrace who I really am
           G                   Em
If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
      F               
Then that's what it is

[Instrumental]
Am G Dm F

[Verse]
       Am            G       F
Pretty soon, you'll have to face
          Am    G         F     
You're a virus called the human race
         Am     G     F    
And I'll never never know

[Pre-Chorus]
F
I have done everything, everything
G
Not to feel what it is I'm feeling
F                                   G              C
This basement devil is kicking the ass of my angel on the ceiling

[Chorus]
Am          G
But it is, what it is
     Em                F         C  
You don't know how to live with what it is
Am        G                    
But it is what it is, 
   Em          F       C    
it may seem impossible
Am  G  Em           F       C   Am
But I will embrace who I really am
           G                   Em
If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
      F               
Then that's what it is

[Instrumental]
Am G Dm F

[Bridge]
Am           G
Don't push me Don't kill me
Dm         F
What it is cause it is what it is
Am              G
Don't play games, don't piss me off
Dm         F
What it is cause it is what it is
Am           G
Don't ask me Don't tell me
Dm         F
What it is cause it is what it is
Am           G
Don't push me Don't kill me
Dm         F
What it is cause it is what it is
Am            G
Don't run from where you come from
Dm         F
          Cause it is what it is
     F  G
And I
     F  G C
And I

[Chorus]
Am          G
But it is, what it is
     Em                F         C  
You don't know how to live with what it is
Am        G                    
But it is what it is, 
   Em          F       C    
it may seem impossible
Am  G  Em           F       C   Am
But I will embrace who I really am
           G                   Em
If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
      F               
Then that's what it is
