[Intro]
C    G   C
[Verse 1]
C                     G7                C
It's a way of mine to say just what I'm thinking
                     G7               C
And to do the things I really want to do
         F                                C
And you want to change the part of me I'm proud of
                 G7                C
So I can't be myself when I'm with you
[Verse 2]
                       G7                C
Oh you never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday
                        G7               C
Just because I don't believe the way you do
    F                               C
But I believe the Lord knows I'm unhappy 
                    G7                C   C7
Cause I can't be myself when I'm with you
[Chorus] 
F                             C
I can't be myself and be what pleases you
          F             C           G7
And down deep inside I don't believe   that you want me to
          F                            C
And it's not my way to take so long deciding 
                   G7                C
That I can't be myself when I'm with you
[Solo]
C    G   C
[Chorus] 
F                             C
I can't be myself and be what pleases you
          F             C           G7
And down deep inside I don't believe   you'd want me to
          F                              C
And it's not my style to take so long deciding 
                   G7                C
That I can't be myself when I'm with you
[Outro]
                   G7                C
No, I can't be myself when I'm with you
