Intro, repeat twice:
Verse 1:
G9 G Am7b5 Am7b5*
Butterflies begin from having been a larva
G9 G Am7b5 Am7b5* Eb7
As a child is born from being in a mother's womb
But how many times have you wished you were some other
Someone than who you are
Chorus 1:
Yet who's to say that if all were uncovered,
You will like what you see.
You can only be you,
D9/A G9 (then play intro once)
as I can only be me.
Verse 2:
G9 G Am7b5 Am7b5*
Flowers cannot bloom until it is their season
G9 G Am7b5 Am7b5* Eb7
As we would not be here unless it was our destiny
But how many times have you wished to be in spaces
Time, places than what you were
Chorus 2:
Yet who's to say with unfamiliar faces
You could any more be
Loving you that you'd see
You can only be you,
D9/A G9 (then play intro twice)
as I can only be me. Oooh . . .
I can only be me
