That's Not Me

Tom :A

A
I had to prove that I could make it alone
   E7/4            E7
But that's not me
   A
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
   E7/4            E7
But that's not me
       Bm/F#                  E7
I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
    Bm/F#                  E7                     C#m7  F#7+    G#m7/F#
What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl



Chorus 1:
      F#7+  
I'm a little bit scared
        G#m7/F#               F#7+        G#m7/F#
Cause I haven't been home in a long time
      B
You needed my love
       B7                      E          E7
And I know that I left at the wrong time



A
My folks when I wrote them
   E7/4            E7
Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me
   A
I went through all kinds of changes
   E7/4            E7
Took a look at myself and said that's not me
       Bm/F#                  E7
I miss my pad and the places I've known
    Bm/F#                  E7                     C#m7  F#7+    G#m7/F#
And every night as I lay there alone I would dream



Chorus 2:
  F#7+  
I once had a dream
    G#m7/F#                     F#7+        G#m7/F#
So I packed up and split for the city
  G7+                    Am7/G                 G7+      Am7/G 
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
     C                  C7                              F     F7
I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready



Tag (Repeat To Fade):
  F#7+  
I once had a dream
    G#m7/F#                     F#7+        G#m7/F#
So I packed up and split for the city
  F#7+                   G#m7/F#               F#7+      G#m7/F#
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
