Now leave me alone          D G D

[D]So you say you wan[G]na see behind the cur[D]tain [D]   [G]     [A]       [D]

Before I was loved by you I didn't know how to
Love was nothing to me but a four letter word
But I'm learning being strong don't mean being alone
So just hold on girl and soon you're gonna know
The man I'll be tomorrow

[D]The man I am today
[A]oh i'm not gonna stay this way its just [D]the man i am today oh [A]i'm not gonna

stay this way
[D]the man i am today
