F#m               C#m
It's not fair, it's not fair
G#m             B
I didn't know, I wasn't there
F#m                C#m
It's not fair, It's not fair
G#m          B
Seeing you lying there

F#m
I wasn't strong enough,
A
to save you from the evil stuff
C#m
I wasn't smart like you
D               E
To do what you would do

F#m
I know I'm not a leading man
A               (C#m)
I know I'm not a star
D
but I know what makes me special
E                 F#m
is what I feel in my heart

F#m            B
I'm just a sidekick
D        (E)        A
but I love being at your side

A G D x2

A                              G D
I've been in the shadows for far too long -
A                              G D
But I'm the leading man of this song
A                              G D
I was a stupid doofus but now that's gone
E
I'm ready for a change, gonna keep calm and carry on!

A                              G D
I know I'm not a pretty boy, but I'm a man
A                              G D
I'll find a way to save ya baby, yes I can
A                              G D

E
I'm ready for a change, gonna take a stand


F#m         B
I'm just a sidekick
F#m        B
I'm just a sidekick
F#m        B
I'm just a sidekick
D        (G)        A
but I love being at your side

D
I'm always forgotten
                        A      (G D)
always come in second place
D
I'll never be a front man
                        A      (G D)
no one can remember my face
D
If I was in a dinner
D                         A                  (G D)
I would surely be the less prominent taste
          D               E
but when I think of how I feel for you
         C#          F#m
and the love I have inside
  G
I forget about all the things I am not
   E
and my heart swells up with pride

A                     G D
Am I the strongest (no I'm not)
A                     G D
Am I the smartest (no I'm not)
A                     G D
Am I the hottest (no I'm not)
E
But am I the greatest (no I'm not)

A                 G D
Am I the hero (no I'm not)
A                                   G D
Am I the one who steals the show (no I'm not)
A                                   G D
Am I the one who you should know (no I'm not)
E
But am I the one who takes you home (definitely not)

A                      G D
Am I the chosen one (no I'm not)
A                      G D
Am I the prodigal son (no I'm not)
A                      G D
Am I almost done (no I'm not)
C                                       D
But I'm the one who's gonna love you with - all of his heart because... 
C

C                                       D
I'm the one who's gonna love you with - all of his heart because... 
E

A                           G          D
I'm not a great athlete, I'm no good at art
A                           G          D
I know my brain is not my most impressive part
A                           G          D
My wand can barely work and my car won't start
E
but I know what makes me special's what I feel in my heart

F#m        B
I'm just a sidekick
F#m        B
I'm just a sidekick
