The Real Me

Bm C G   Bm C G D

[Verse]
G         C
I try to be
           G
More than me
          D                   G
For the sake of everyone else
          C
I try to be
            G     D
More than enough
                      Em
But it's never enough

[Pre Chorus]
                   C
I'm a stalled out car
                      G
That you pushed too far
                                 Em
Now you can't rely on me anymore
                    C
I got a broken heart
                     G
I won't let them see
               D
When I try to be more than me
C
I don't know when  I started to change

[Chorus]
      G          C
And there's no way I can fight it,
       Em       D
And there's no way I can hide it
       G                     C
This world was made for the ones
                     Em   D
Who are better than me
Continues after the ad
      C         D
And I'm still patiently waiting
Em                G
For the day I'll quit masquerading
         C                    D
But I'm not quite ready for you to see
          Em             D       C    G       D              C       G   D
The real me, the real me, the real me... the real me... the real me!

[Bridge]
G                   C
  Don't look too close,
               G
Don't go too deep
                    D                      G
This is how the distance between us starts
               C                G
What will you do when you learn
            D
That I am less than
                  Em
The sum of my parts?

[Pre Chorus]
              C
I am just a mess
          G
I must confess
                                    Em
I get so sick of all of this stress
                     C
I got a broken heart
                      G
I won't let them see
               D
When I try to be
             C
More than me I'll live in the rain

[Chorus]
     G          C
And there's no way I can fight it,
     Em         D
And there's no way I can hide it
      G                        C
This world was made for the ones
                      Em     D
Who are better than me
     C            D
And I'm still patiently waiting
Em                 G
For the day I'll quit masquerading
         C                   D
But I'm not quite ready for you to see
          Em             D     G         C
The real me, the real me, the real me...
Em        D    G   C   Em D
The real me...

[Instrumental]

      G          C
And there's no way I can hide it,
      Em         D
And there's no way I could fight it
        G                      C
This world was made for the ones
                     Em   D
Who are better than me
      C            D
And I'm still patiently waiting
Em                 G
For the day I'll quit masquerading
         C                   D
But I'm not quite ready for you to see
      Em                 D      C        G  D  C  G  D
The real me, the real me, the real me...
