I don't need to be anything other
Than a prison guard's son
I don't need to be anything other
Than a specialist's son
I don't have to be anyone other
Than the birth of two souls in one
Part of where I'm going, is knowing where I'm coming from
chorus:
Ab Eb
I don't want to be
Bb Cm
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
Ab Eb
All I have to do
Bb Cm
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
Ab Eb
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Bb
Wondering what I've got to do
Cm
Or who I'm supposed to be
Ab Eb Bb Cm
I don't want to be anything other than me
