That's Not Me The Beach Boys
"That's Not Me"
(Brian Wilson / Tony Asher)
Verse 1:
[A]I had to prove that I could make it alone
But[E7sus4] that's not me[E7]
I w[A]anted to show how independent I'd grown now
But[E7sus4] that's not me[E7]
I could[Bm7/F#] try to be big in the e[E7]yes of the world
What[Bm7/F#] matters to me is what [E7]I could be to just one [C#m7]girl[F#maj7] [G#m7/F#]
Chorus 1:
I'm a [F#maj7]little bit scared
Cause I [G#m7/F#]haven't been home in a[F#maj7] long time[G#m7/F#]
You ne[B]eded my love
And I k[B7]now that I left at the w[E]rong time[E7]
Verse 2:
My folks when I wrote them
Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me
I went through all kinds of changes
Took a look at myself and said that's not me
I miss my pad and the places I've known
And every night as I lay there alone I would dream
Chorus 2:
I [F#maj7]once had a dream
So I[G#m7/F#] packed up and split for the[F#maj7] city[G#m7/F#]
I [Gmaj7]soon found out that my [Am7/G]lonely life wasn't so [Gmaj7]pretty[Am7/G]
I'm g[C]lad I went now I'm [C7]that much more sure that we're r[F]eady[F7]
Coda (repeat to fade):
I [F#maj7]once had a dream
So I[G#m7/F#] packed up and split for the[F#maj7] city[G#m7/F#]
I [F#maj7]soon found out that my [G#m7/F#]lonely life wasn't so [F#maj7]pretty[G#m7/F#]
