That's Not Me
The Beach Boys
(Brian Wilson / Tony Asher)
Verse 1:
A
I had to prove that I could make it alone
E7sus4 E7
But that's not me
A
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
E7sus4 E7
But that's not me
Bm7/F# E7
I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
Bm7/F# E7 C#m7 F#maj7 G#m7/F#
What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl
Chorus 1:
F#maj7
I'm a little bit scared
G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#
Cause I haven't been home in a long time
B
You needed my love
B7 E E7
And I know that I left at the wrong time
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:
F#maj7
I once had a dream
G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#
So I packed up and split for the city
Gmaj7 Am7/G Gmaj7 Am7/G
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
C C7 F F7
I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready
Coda (repeat to fade):
F#maj7
I once had a dream
G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#
So I packed up and split for the city
F#maj7 G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
