[A]
[Eb]
[Ab]
To [Ab] fulfill the need to be who I am in this [Fm] world [Bb] is all I ask
[Bbm]
I can't pretend [Gb] to be something [Ebm] that I'm not
And I [Eb] won't [Ab] wear a mask
Ooh, [B] you touch my face with love in [Cm] your eyes
But will you [Bb] touch my heart
With [Gb] the understanding that it takes to [Eb] realize
I just [Ab] can't play your part
Ooh, [Ab] I've got this need to be true to myself
And make [Db]
my own mistakes
[Fm] I don't want to [Gb]
leave to hold [Eb] someone else
No [Ab] matter what it takes
[Db] So if you're sure it's love
[Cm]
Just be sure it's love
[Bbm]
[Eb] Oh, just [C] think of [F] me
[Bbm]
Cause I am what I am
And I [Ebm] have the [Db] need to [Ab]
be
[Eb] [Ab]
[Fm] [Eb] [Abm]
[Db] [Gb] I'm not fool enough
To be [Fm]
the mask [Bb] I'm made
[Ebm]
But it's up to me to choose my [B] own life
[E] I'm rocking my well [A]-being
To the [Bbm] ones I take
[Eb]
[Bbm]
[Ab] There's a need to be something
[Ab]
[Bb]
[Bbm]
[Gb] Someone's
[Db] shadow
A [Ab]
little spot to [Eb]
stay
[Ab] If [Db] you're sure it's love
[Cm] Just be sure it's love [Bbm] For me
[Eb] And all [C] that I
[F] [Bbm]
am
Has [Db] a need [Ab] to be
I'm [Db]
not fool enough
[Cm]
To be the mask I'm [Bbm] made
But [Eb] it's [C]
up to [G] [Bbm]
[Eb]
[Db] [Cm] [Bbm] me to choose my own life
And I have [Eb]
[Ab] the need to be
[Bb]
[Bbm] [Bb] [Ab]
