1.
I [G] wore the clothes you [D] liked
You [G] said they gave me that [D] look
I [C] even tried to [D] like the food
I [C] know you like to [G] cook
I [C] parted my hair on the [G] left
I [C] carried your arm on the [G] right
I [C] slept late in the [G] morning
And I [C] stayed out late at [D] night
Chorus:
I can't [G] give any [D] more of my [G] soul a-[C] way
And [G] still look my-[D] self in the [C] mirror every-[D] day
I can't [G] change any [D] more
of what [G] makes me be my-[C] self
And [G] still have e-[D] nough left
not to [C] be somebody [D] else
[Am] I'm not de-[C] manding as a [D] man
Just [Am] asking you [C] love me for what I [G] am
2.
I [G] tried hard [D] not to say
the [G] things you don't like to [D] hear
And [G] when to you it [D] was apropos
I [C] nibbled on your [G] ear
I [C] opened the door up for [G] you
I [C] kept my big mouth [G] shut
Well I've [C] been going [G] down
While [C] you've been going [D] up
