[Verse 1]
What did I ever do to Cmyou
That you should treat me this Gmway?
Is it really such a Cmcrime
For an angel to speak his Gmmind?
Anytime I'll try to shed some lCmight
If I were a big bGmoy
I wouldn't cry
CmBut since I'm not a big bGmoy
I'll have to cDry
[Verse 2]
What did I ever do so Cmwrong
That you should cast me from Gmgrace
Though I love to rule in CmHell here
How I miss the taste of HGmeaven
Its soft and cool embrCmace
If I were a big boGmy
I wouldn't cry
CmBut since I'm not a big boGmy
I'll have to Dclose my eyes
And picture what it's likeBb  
[Chorus]
BbI'm just like Dyou
I'm made by GmHe
Despised by Fthey
I'm almost Bbme
I'm nearly Dhuman
GmLook at me
I'm Falmost a human beBbing

I'll have to cDlose my eyes
And picture what it's likeBb

[Verse 1]

What did I ever do to you

That you should treat me this way?

Is it really such a crime

For an angel to speak his mind?

Anytime I'll try to shed some light

If I were a big boy

I wouldn't cry

Cm Gm

But since I'm not a big boy

I'll have to cry

[Verse 2]

What did I ever do so wrong

That you should cast me from grace

Though I love to rule in Hell here

How I miss the taste of Heaven

Its soft and cool embrace

If I were a big boy

I wouldn't cry

Cm Gm

But since I'm not a big boy

I'll have to close my eyes

And picture what it's like

[Chorus]

Bb D

I'm just like you

I'm made by He

Despised by they

I'm almost me

I'm nearly human

Look at me

I'm almost a human being

I'm just like you

I'm made by He

Despised by they

I'm almost me

I'm nearly human

Pity me

D Gm F

[Verse 3]

Cm Gm

I still remember your light

And it was streaming down

And burning out my eyes

Cm Gm

If I were a big boy

I wouldn't cry

Cm Gm

But since I'm not a big boy

I'll have to close my eyes

And picture what it's like

[Chorus]

I'm just like you

I'm made by He

Despised by they

I'm almost me

I'm nearly human

Look at me

I'm almost a human being

These tears are real

I'm jealousy

I'm spite and hate

To the core I'm mean

I'm nearly human

Look at me

I'm almost a human being

I'm just like you

Better than He

To Hell with they

I'm almost me

I'm nearly human

Pity me

I'm almost a human being

F Gm D

[Outro]

Bb F

Don't touch me, oh

Gm D

I couldn't bear the thought of it, now

Bb F

Don't touch me, oh

Gm Dm

I couldn't bear the strain

Bb F

Don't touch me, oh

Gm D

I couldn't bear the thought of it, now

Touch me

Gm D

Touch me

Don't touch me

Touch me

Gm D

Touch me
