                    C
I guess I just got lost
              Am
being someone else
                     F
I tried to kill the pain
                  G
but nothing ever helped
                 C
I left myself behind
                    Am
somewhere along the way
                F
hoping to come back around
                    G F
to find myself someday

            C           G           F
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
                 Am  G            C
to say that it's okay , tell me please...

Chorus:
 C                       G
Would you one time, just let me be myself
           F
so I can shine with my own light
Am           G
Let me be myself
C Am             F  G
    Let me be myself

I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell
It's time to make my way
Into the world I knew
Take back all of these times
That I gave in to you

Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's ok, but tell me

Chorus:
Please, would you one time
Just let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

C      G           F      Am        G
That's all i ever wanted from this world
       Am  F     G
is to let me be me

Chorus:
Please, would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
Please, would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

Would you one time oooh
Let me be myself
Let me be me
