Cm
Born a life, 9 to 5
Gonna work 'til you die
Gonna hurt, gonna learn to take it like a man
Find a girl, make a wife
Dig a fence, paint it white
What if I had another plan?

Chorus:
                  Cm
But what if I was made for the stage?
What if I was made for the lights?
What if I was chosen to write the stories?
Wasn't built to work the line
                  Cm                   D#     A#
Oh, what if I was different? (whoa, whoa, whoa)
                 Cm                  D#     A#
Would I wanna be differnt? (whoa, whoa, whoa}

Man, it's cold, crack a dawn
Hear that old rooster crow
Coffee's on and ain't it never gonna change
Another night, the same fight
Same girl, same guy
What if I wanna break the mundane?

Chorus:
What if I was made for the stage?
What if I was made for the lights?
What if I was chosen to write the stories?
Wasn't built to work the line
Oh, what if I was different?
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
Would I wanna be different?
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)

               Cm
Feels like I'm stuck in this rut
                      D#
Tryin' to spin my way out,
                                   A#
I can't figure it out, don't know how
           Cm
How I'm supposed to tell mama and daddy
    D#                                    A#
Without them mad at me, but I'm breaking down
I'm breaking down

Chorus:
What if I was made for the stage?
What if I was made for the lights?
What if I was chosen to write the stories?
Wasn't built to work the line
Oh, what if I was different?
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)
Would I wanna be different?
(Whoa, whoa, whoa)

I wanna be different (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
I wanna be different (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
