x 2
V1:
Someone falls to pieces sleepin all alone, someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence to finally drift away
Someone gets excited in a chapel yard, catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozin white roses on a grave
To be yourself is all that you can do yeeah
To be yourself is all that you can do yeeah
Chords once then V2:
Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain
Someone tries to hide himself down inside himself he prays
Someone swears his true love until the end of time, another runs away
Separate or united, healthy or insane
x4
Wah over intro chords
Even when you've paid enough
been put upon or been held up
with every single memory of
the good or bad, faces of luck
don't lose any sleep tonight
i'm sure everything will end up allright
you may win or lose
But to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah-eah...
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do, yeah-eah
To be yourself is all that you can do-oo
To be yourself is all that you can--
Be yourself is all that you can--
Be yourself is all that you can dooooooohoooo
