Let Me Be Me

[Em]: 022000 or 022033 or 02203x
[C]: 032010 or x32033 or x3203x
[D]: x00232 or 200233

Listening to the beginning of the song carefully, the instrument in the background
seems to be playing this. The capital letters represent when the guitar-picking
starts (ie. pick the 2 on the A string when "GROWN" is sung)

    [Em]      [C]     [G]      [D]

[Em] - "i'm a Grown up..."
[C] - "it's been Like this.."
[G] - "you're Questioning.."
[D] - "and Answering.."

From what I can hear, it actually seems like Em is picked through to "you're
questioning" - then C is played, but it just doesn't sound right when playing it
totally acoustic. But if you to play it with the song itself, that's what it
sounds like. For the purposes of these tabs, I think it sounds better utilising
all 4 chords.

Either strum, or finger-pick. In the first verse, each chord is picked twice
before changing (utilising the previously mentioned 4 chords).

Verse 1 and verse 2 are slightly different in that I've actually tabbed verse 1
with a less frequent switching of chords and verse 2 with more frequent. You can
really play it either way (similar to how I put 2 versions of the Pre-Chorus and the Chorus).

Remember, mix/mash it up as much as you like.

Please leave any comments/ratings/corrections/suggestions.
