Tom: C
C
G
I'm sorry for all the things I said when I forgot,
F
I was trying to be normal.
C
G
F
And I'm sorry for that lie that I was trying to be normal.
C
G
I was made with a little bit a West Coast, a little bit a South,
C
G
F
"Be who you are, there's no such thing as normal" and I know it's a little bit
C
E
F
1991 pop song, to say, "Just be yourself".
C
E
F
So, call me a 1991 pop song, don't wanna be nobody else.
C
E
F
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do,
C
E
F
so, call the restaurant and set a table for two.
C
E
Am
F
And I'll pull up a chair because I got to learn somehow, somewhere.
C
E
Am
F
Me, myself, and I, are sorry for the way.
C
G
F
We tried to make it seem like we're neurotypical
C
G
F
when we know there's just some things that we can't control.
C
G
But I just wanted to fit in, didn't wanna stand out.
F
Didn't want you looking at me the way you looking at me right now
C
G
F
before you knew that I'm not neurotypical.
C
E
F
It's a little bit 1991 pop song, to say, "Just be yourself".

C
E
Am
F
Me, myself, and I. Me, myself, and I.
Post-Chorus
C
Piano here, 'cause that's where it belongs,
C
two minutes in, is the perfect part of the song for feelings.
C
If I'm gonna say sorry, I'm gonna say it to myself,
F
you take a lot of hate from the doubt I manifest.
F
Listening to listeners lists makes inhibitions
F
that did not exist until the existence of my listening.
G
Like a mirror or a scale is the definition of you
F
I'm sorry to my body for what I put you through.
F
Not thanking you for walking with me when my mind was walking from me.
C
How you carried life inside me gave me more joy than pounds could give me.
C
I'm sorry to my soul, I was just a kid,
Am
I didn't realize my profits were helping let you go.
Am
The people that I trusted to teach me everything
F
became professors in the machine that's anti-original.
F
G
But I don't even have to be like anybody else,
G
A
I know it's so cliché but I just wanna be myself.
A
F
I'm sorry for the way I told you normal was a thing
G
and if you are imperfect then you know just what I mean.
C
E
F
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do.

E
F
So, call the restaurant and set a table for two
C
E

F
and I'll pull up a chair because I got to learn somehow, somewhere.
C
E
Am
F
Me, myself, and I, oh.
C
E
F
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do.

C
E
F
(Somehow, somewhere)
F
There's no such thing as normal, yah yah, yow,
C
G

C
G
F
Be who you are, there's no such thing as normal, woah, oh.
