Let Me Be The Turtles
Let Me Be:The Turtles.
INTRO: D A D E(x2)
[D]Please don't [E]mistake me, [D]or try to [E]make me,
the [D]shadow of [E]anybody [A]else.[D] [A]
[D]I ain't the [E]him or [D]her you think I [E]am,
I'm just [D]trying [E]hard to be my[A]self.
Though, [E]society's goal is to be [A]part of the whole,
that may [D]sound good to you, not to [E]me.[E7]
CHORUS:
Let me [A]be, let me be..to [D]think like I want [E]to.
Let me [A]be, let me be..that's all [D]I ask of [E]you.
I [D]am what I am and that's [C#m]all, I [Bm]ever can [D]be.[A] [D] [E]
[D]Don't try to [E]plan me [D]or unders[E]tand me,
I [D]can't stand to [E]be under[A]stood[D].[A]
I could [D]never give [E]in to, or [D]ever live up [E]to,
[D]being like [E]you think I [A]should.
I've got [E]some inner need which I'm [A]tryin' to heed,
I can't [D]take hand-me-down [E]destiny[E7].

CHORUS:
Let me [A]be, let me be..to [D]think like I want [E]to.
Let me [A]be, let me be..that's all [D]I ask of [E]you.
I [D]am what I am and that's [C#m]all, I [Bm]ever can [D]be.[A] [D] [E]
[D]Don't try to [E]change me or [D]re[E]arrange me,
to [D]satisfy the [E]selfishness of [A]you[D].[A]
I'm [D]not a piece of [E]clay, to mold to [D]your moves, each [E]day..
and I'm [D]not a pawn to [E]be told how to [A]move.
I'm sorry [E]I'm not the fool you thought would [A]play
by your rules...a 'to-[D]each-his-own' philoso[E]phy.[E7]
CHORUS:
Let me [A]be, let me be..to [D]think like I want [E]to.
Let me [A]be, let me be..that's all [D]I ask of [E]you.
I [D]am what I am and that's [C#m]all, I [Bm]ever can [D]be.[A] [D] [E]
OUTRO:
I said, that's [D]all I [E]ever can [A]be.
I said, that's [D]all I [E]ever can [A]be.
I said, that's [D]all I [E]ever can [A]be.(Fade.)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
