Standard (EADGBE)

I spend my life

Trying to do things right

 But all I do is fall to my face, with my hands and my hips so many times

But then I learned

After being burnt

 To get back up, push straight on, stop the tears, people move on-ooon

Refrain

 Well it's alright to be myself

Now I've learned to stand

 Well it’s okay to be just who I am

 I've spent years really hatin' me

 Longing to be friends

 Now I hope that you can understand

 This Is Who I Am

Now when life gets tough

I'm quick to hurry up

I run all day, I run through the night, I'll break down walls, I'll hit up high

I don't care if I'm fat,

Or if you think my clothes are bad

Yet I can go to sleep at night, I'm a good person and I'll get by-yyy

Refrain

Well it's alright to be myself

Now I've learned to stand

Well it’s okay to be just who I am

I've spent years really hatin' me

Longing to be friends

Now I hope that you can understand

This Is Who I Am

 I need someone someone someone someone like me

 You deserve deserve,deserve to have me

 Cause our world keeps spinning

 And you don't try to turn it

Refrain

Well it's alright to be myself

Now I've learned to stand

Well it’s okay to be just who I am

I've spent years really hatin' me

Longing to be friends

Now I hope that you can understand

This Is Who I Am

Yeaaaaaaaaaaah, yeaah yeah
