VERSE I:
                   F#                 Bb                 B                Bm
This is my face on my head on my shoulders
         F#                 Bb                   B       Bm
With eyes and a mouth and a nose
            F#              Bb                    B                      Bm
With a lie on my tongue and a weight on my back
           F#             Bb                  B      Bm
And a fidgeting twitch in my toes
       Dmaj7    Bm        F#
But this isn’t me anymore


PRECHORUS I:
                          F#       Bb                              B             C#
These are my arms around you, though you’re reluctant 
            F#        Bb         B                       Bm
And my fingernails, I can’t help but bite
       F#                   Bb                     B                 C#
My face is in my hands, but I’ll change in seconds
            F#        B#                     B                    Bm
As my smile returns and I remember tonight
          Dmaj7            Bm           F#
And I find that I’m me once more


CHORUS:
             B                                  F#
‘Cause this is the me that I like to be
      Bb                                 D#sus    D#maj
Charisma quick wit and charm 
                B                             F#
But that side of me rarely likes to be
            Bb                       Ebm
In the face of causing harm 
                B                                 F#
Can you see my fear as you disappear
         Bb                       D#sus    D#maj
Into someone else’s arms
                    B                              F#
Or are you unaware that the me you care for
      Bb                    Ebm
Isn’t really me at all
Dmaj7           Bm     B
           This is      me.


VERSE II:
These are my hands, on my arms, on my conscience
With fingers that shake while they strum
And this is you, in my head, regardless of whether I want you there
And thoughts that I tried to avoid have already begun
And I can’t feel myself anymore

PRECHORUS II:
These are my fingers typing, to no avail
As I try my best, to let you down
But I’ve just so much to do, and I can’t help but force you
To the bottom of my lists and block out the sound
This isn’t the me I want to explore

Bridge:
B F# Bb D#sus D#maj B F# Bb

CHORUS

B                                           F#                Bb
This is me, this is me. Oh this is me, this is me
B                        F#                 Bb
This is me, oh this is, this is me.
B                    Bm                 F#
Da da da da da da da da da.
