Standard (EADGBE)

 Can't you see I'm just a writer

 Learned enough to never be a liar again.

 Don't you know I'm not an actress

 Taught myself to never ever try to pretend.

 And don't get me wrong

 I, I have what you don't.

 I have a heart that's covered in scars

 I got a beach, a melody and a guitar

 I got a dream that's bigger than me

 I got a rhyme, a rhythm and time on the sea

 You'll never take that away from me.

 I can see you with your judgement

 Don't you know that's all you'll have to show in the end.

 Don't you know I'll go my own way

 No surprise that I don't really care what you say.

 Don't get me wrong

 I, I have what you don't

Chorus

 Can't you see I'm just a writer

 Learned enough to never be a liar again
