Oh look at me so ordinary, no mystery, with no great capabilities,

Preserved and shy your average guy, no piercing stare, just out of shape with messy hair,

Verse 3
[G]Seductive charm a way with words so effortless not leather clad or dangerous,
But [Em]I always [D]did it like a [C]real rebel wou[G]ld,

or so I?m [D]told.
