Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I'm not gonna say everything is OK

 Cause OK is not the way that I feel.

 I'm not gonna be any fool's Christmas tree

Let 'em hang gifts on me that aren't real

Chorus

I'm not gonna take second best

 I've got no use for the rest.

 World you better hear what I say

 Cause for me true love could be 100 years away.

I'm not givin' in to a smile or a grin

On a face I might never see again.

I'm not gonna fly in some big phoney sky

On a life that I know just can't win.

Chorus +: And if it is, I'll wait
