[Intro]
A5   Asus4| Asus4   A| A/E   A| A6A(b5) |
A5   Asus4| Asus4   A| A/E   A| D   D/A|
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D| A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
There's-
[Verse 1]
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
nothin' in the way I walk, that can
A   Gsus2   A| Gsus2   D   Gsus2|
tell you where I'm going. There's
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
nothing in the words I speak, that can
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
betray anything I'm knowing. Don't |
(arpeggio)
DC6sus2 D| C   Em7   G|
think about the way I dress. You can
(arpeggio)
DC6sus2 D| C   Em7   G|
fit me on a labelled shelf
Fmaj7| C|
Don't pretend that you know me, 'cause
Fmaj7   C| D   Dsus4   D|
I don't even know my-self I don't know my-
A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D| A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D|
self
A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D| A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D|
[Chorus]
D| G| D   Dsus4| D|
I don't mind if you try once in a while. And-
D| G| D   Dsus4| D|
I don't mind if I cry once in a while. The-
G| C| G   C/G| G|
doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem. And-
D| G| D   Dsus4| D|
I'm just tryin' to fight my way out of this dream.
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D| A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
Don't-
[Verse 2]
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
listen to the words I say, weighing up
A   Gsus2   A| Gsus2   D   Gsus2|
if I'm en-lightened. Don't
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
shiver as you pass me by, 'cause mister,
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
I'm the one who's frightened. The
(arpeggio)
D   C6sus2   D| C   Em7   G|
police just came and left; they wanted
(arpeggio)
D   C6sus2   D| C   Em7   G|
me and no one else.
Fmaj7| C|
Don't pretend that you know me, 'cause
Fmaj7   C| D   Dsus4   D|
I don't even know my-self I said I don't know my-
A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D| A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D|
self
A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D| A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D|
(Chorus)
(Verse 3, Instrumental)
[Interlude]
Do-
D| G|
you remember me? I-
D| G|
don't remember you.
D| G|
Do you still love me? You-
D| G|
know I think you do.
A| D|
I have been gone, and some
A| G|
prison warden knows my scream.
A| D|
I'm just tryin' to fight my way out of this
A| A|
dream.
[Verse 4]
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
There's only five who know my real name. My
A   Gsus2   A| Gsus2   D   Gsus2|
mother don't believe they know it. What she
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
called me is the way I'm staying; And
A   Gsus2   A| A   Gsus2   A   D|
no one will ever blow it. |
(arpeggio)
D   C6sus2   D| C   Em7   G|
Come on all of you big boys
(arpeggio)
D   C6sus2   D| C   Em7   G|
Come on all of you elves
Fmaj7| C|
Don't pretend that you know me, 'cause
Fmaj7   C| D   Dsus4   D|
I don't even know my-self I don't know my-
A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D| A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D|
self
A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D| A   Gsus2   A   Gsus2   D|
[Outro]
D| G| D   Dsus4| D|
I don't mind if you try once in a-while. And
D| G| D   Dsus4| D   D5   Dsus4|
I don't mind if I cry once in a-while
