LEAD PART PLAYS VERSES (Look at the end of my tab)
Oh look at me so ordinary, no mystery, with no great capabilities,
Bridge:
But [Em]I could ma[D]ke out as if I[C] had it but you d[G]on?t,
[Em]God I?m so o[D]bvious and I sh[C]ould let it [G]go oh I don?t k[D]now.

[G]I?m no teenage icon,
[C]I?m no Fra[D]nkie Avalon,
[G]I?m nobody?s her[C]o.[D] [G]
Verse 2
Reserved and shy your average guy, no piercing stare, just out of shape with messy hair,
Bridge:
But [Em]I always fi[D]gured I was s[C]omebody in [G]wake,
[Em] And now I?m [D]guessing that my [C]moment must be[G] late cause I'm h[D]ere.

[C]But I got it, I[D] got [G]I?m over[C]run with it all.[D] [G]
Verse 3
Seductive charm a way with words so effortless not leather clad or dangerous,
Bridge:
But [Em]I always [D]did it like a [C]real rebel wou[G]ld,
[Em] I had a [D]photo where John [C]Lennon may have s[G]tood,
or so I?m [D]told.
