I Refuse

Intro: C G Bb F X2

Verse 1:
C         G            Bb
   Don’t say that you know me
      F
You never knew the first thing at 
all
 C        G               Bb
   Still you should have told me
         F
Took everything, selling it off
C         G              Bb
   These holes in your stories
    F
As many as there’s holes in 
the wall
Bb
   You told me that you like the old
 me
F
   ‘Cause the new me is 
telling you

Chorus:
C    Bb
I Refuse
Continues after the ad
F                        
To fit into this lame idea 
                 C      Bb
you’ve always had for me
F
I don’t want to be what you 
want me to be

Verse 2:
I hear you complaining ‘cause 
I’m not the same
But I won’t be missing the 
place that I came
I know that it’s risky but all
 bets are off
This is my life, so whatever the 
cost, if I’m lost
Would you hold it against me
And make me pay for every step of 
the way
I know that you’ve already 
told me
You don’t like the new me at 
all
You told me that you miss the old me
And that I couldn’t be happy 
at all ‘cause?

Chorus:
I Refuse
To fit into this lame idea 
you’ve always had for me
I’m not going to be what you 
want me to be

Bridge:
Bb                         F
I know that you’ve already 
told me
                              Bb
You don’t like the new me at 
all
                              F
You told me that you used to know me
                             Bb
You really never knew me at all
                          F
But darling change is a good thing
           Bb                 F
I see for myself Change is a good 
thing
             Bb              F
Spelling it out Change is a good 
thing  Can see for myself

Verse 3:
Don’t say that you know me
You never knew the first thing at 
all
Still you should have told me
Took everything, selling it off
