I've Gotta Be Me

C                                Dm
Whether I'm right or whether I'm wrong

          G7                                    C
Whether I find a place in this world or never belong

              F   G7                F     G7
I've gotta be me      I've gotta be me

                F    C         Dm      G7
What else can I be, but what I am

           C                   Dm
I want to live,  not merely survive

          G7                                       C
And won't give up this dream of life that keeps me alive

              F    G7                     F     G7
I've gotta be me      -     I've gotta be me

                  F        Dm     C
The dream that I see makes what I am

                E7                        Am
That far away prize   -   A world of success

               Dm        G7       C
Is waiting for me, if I heed the call

                Am                        Bm
I won't settle down,    won't settle for less

            Am                                  Dm     G7
As long as there's a chance  that I can have it all

                 C                        Dm
I'll go it alone ,  That's how it must be

             G7                                         C
I can't be right for somebody else if I'm not right for me

                F    G7                     F      G7
I've gotta be free     -    I've gotta be free

           F               Am         G7      C      A7
Daring to try to do it or die, I've gotta be me.
