Intro
 
[Em] [Bm] [G] [D] [Em] [Bm] [G] [D]
 
Verse 1
 
Vi[Em]Virginia Woolf and poet[Bm]poetry
 
No one seemed to notice me
[D]Being young was getting [Em]so old
[Em]Cheap beer and cigarett[Bm]cigarettes
 
Life was like a movie set
[G]And I seemed to be given [D]no role
 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
But in [Em]times of trouble
[Bm]I can turn to my mother
And I [D]know that she gon' unde[Em]understand
So at [Em]age 18
[Bm]I cried to my mother
And she [G]told me, "young [D]man"
 
 
Chorus
 
"There are moments when you [Em]fall to the [Bm]ground
But you are stronger than you [G]feel you are [D]now
You don't always have to [Em]speak so loud[Bm]loud, no
[G]Just be as you [D]are
Life is not always a c[Em]comfortable [Bm]ride
Everybody's got [G]scars that they [D]hide
And everybody plays the [Em]fool sometimes[Bm]sometimes, yeah
[G]Just be as you [D]are"
 
 
Verse 2
 
They [Em]played me on the radio[Bm]radio
 
And everything was changing, so
[D]I thought I was all the [Em]way grown
But [Em]I can still remember in[Bm]in that cold November
When I[G]I realized I'm all [D]alone
 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
But in [Em]times of trouble
[Bm]I can turn to my mother
And I [D]know that she gon' unde[Em]understand
So at [Em]age 22
[Bm]I cried to my mother
And she [G]told me, "young [D]man"
 
 
Chorus 2
 
"There are moments when you [Em]fall to the [Bm]ground
But you are stronger than you [G]feel you are [D]now
You don't always have to [Em]speak so loud[Bm]loud, no
[G]Just be as you [D]are
It doesn't matter if you [Em]become some [Bm]star
Life is better when you [G]open your [D]heart
You don't always have to [Em]act so hard[Bm]hard, no
[G]Just be as you are, [D]Just be as you are"
 
 
Bridge
 
[Em] [Bm] [G] [D] [Em] [Bm] [G] [D]
 
If [C]I'm speaking truthfully[Bm]truthfully
 
I'm not who I used to be
[D]And I know some people m[C]might laugh
Cause my [C]music doesn't sound the [Bm]same
 
And my head's no longer shaved
[D]I'm worried if I'm on the right path
 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
But in [Em]times of trouble
[Bm]I can turn to my mother
And I [D]know that she gon' unde[Em]understand
So at [Em]age 26
[Bm]I spoke to my mother (Stop strumming)
 
And she told me, "young man"
 
 
Chorus 2
 
"There are moments when you [Em]fall to the [Bm]ground
But you are stronger than you [G]feel you are [D]now
You don't always have to [Em]speak so loud[Bm]loud, no
[Em]Just be as you a[D]are
It doesn't matter if you [Em]become some [Bm]star
Life is better when you [G]open your [D]heart
You don't always have to [Em]act so hard[Bm]hard, no
Just be [D]as you are, Just be as you are"
 
[Em] [Bm] [G] [D] [Em] [Bm] [G] [D]
