INTRO:
D  A  D  E  x2

#1.
D            E           D       
Please don't mistake me, or try to 
  E
make me,
    D         E       A    D A
the shadow of anybody else.
D           E      D             
I ain't the him or her you think I 
  E
am,
         D      E            A
I'm just trying hard to be myself.
    E                       A
Oh, society's goal is to be part of 
the whole,
         D                         
that may sound good to you, not to 
E  E7
me.

CHORUS:
       A                 D        
Let me be, let me be..to think 
         E
like I want to.
       A                         D
Let me be, let me be..that's all I
        E
 ask of you.
  D                       C#m    
I am what I am and that's all, I 
Bm       D
ever can be.

(D)  A  D  E  D  A  D  E

#2.
D            E       D        E
Don't try to plan me or understand 
me,
  D              E       A    D A
I can't stand to be understood.
        D          E         D   
I could never give in to, or ever
         E
 live up to,
D          E           A
being like you think I should.
         E                         
I've got some inner need which I'm 
A
tryin' to heed,
        D                 E      E7
I can't take hand-me-down destiny.

CHORUS:
       A                 D        
Let me be, let me be..to think 
         E
like I want to.
       A                         D
Let me be, let me be..that's all I
        E
 ask of you.
  D                       C#m    
I am what I am and that's all, I 
Bm       D
ever can be.

#3.
D            E            D E
Don't try to change me or rearrange 
me,
   D           E              A  D A
to satisfy the selfishness of you.
    D              E              
I'm not a piece of clay to mold to
  D                E
 your moods each day,
        D             E           
and I'm not a pawn to be told how 
   A
to move.
          E                   
I'm sorry I'm not the fool you 
               A
thought would play
                       D           
by your rules...but to each his own
        E   E7
 philosophy.

CHORUS:
       A                 D        
Let me be, let me be..to think 
         E
like I want to.
       A                         D
Let me be, let me be..that's all I
        E
 ask of you.
  D                       C#m    
I am what I am and that's all, I 
Bm       A
ever can be.

OUTRO:
               D     E        A
I said, that's all I ever can be.
               D     E        A
I said, that's all I ever can be.
               D     E        A
I said, that's all I ever can be.
