[Verse]
G D
used to color on the walls
Em C
imagine I'm 10 feet tall
G D Em C
I'd do a little dance in pajama pants runnin' down the halls
G D
then I had to grow up
Em C
no more messing up
G D
heard you gotta fit in, you gotta blend in
Em C
if you wanna be happy
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D
so I played A part like a perfect doll
Em D D
til I finally looked in the mirror
[Chorus]
G
that's when I started to miss myself
D
started to tell myself
Em
you don't need nobody else
C
don't need nothing but me
G
that's when I started to love myself
D
to take better care of myself
Em
you don't need nobody else
C
don't need nothing but me
G
nothing but me
D
nothing but me
Em
nothing but me
C
don't need nothing but me
[Verse]
G
had to make myself small
D
so I could fit the mould
Em
I played by the book of a million rules
C
to please them all
G
had to get it wrong
D
to grow strong
Em
to face living in a world where everybody's the same
C
smiling faces to hide the shame
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D
so, if you miss yourself too
Em D
I'm singing this song for you
[Chorus]
G
that's when I started to miss myself
D
started to tell myself
Em
you don't need nobody else
C
don't need nothing but me
G
that's when I started to love myself
D
to take better care of myself
Em
you don't need nobody else
C
don't need nothing but me
G
nothing but me
D
nothing but me
Em
nothing but me
C
don't need nothing but me
[Bridge]
Em D Em D
what makes you different makes you special, you see
Em D Em C
so I won't let it go to waste
Em D Em D
not everybody has to understand me
Em D C
for me to stop playing pretend
[Chorus]
G
that's when I started to miss myself
D
started to tell myself
Em
you don't need nobody else
C
don't need nothing but me
G
that's when I started to love myself
D
to take better care of myself
Em
you don't need nobody else
C
don't need nothing but me
[Outro]
G
nothing but me
D
nothing but me
Em
nothing but me
C
don't need nothing but me
G*
don't need nothing but
