The Way I Am Staind
**Note C chord can be played as a Cadd9 and A can be played as an A7 for a little
Bridge has G, A and A# as root notes - think these sound better as power chords (explained
on this particular song. This song is typical Staind tuning, ie. half step down.
Verse 1
[Dmin]I'm not very [C]good at just paying a[F]ttention

[Dmin]It's the [C]way I [F]am, you'll [A]never [Dmin]change
[C]The way I [F]am, or [A]re ar[Dmin]range
[C]The way I [F]am, just l[A]et me[Dmin] be

Verse 2 and 3 - Same as Verse 1
Bridge (all power chords - same pattern repeated)

[G]I'm not very good at purs[A]uing redemption

I'm not really good (x3)
