A             C#m         Bm7
I heard them whisper and say
Bm7          E
Bad things about you
A            C#m                Bm7
Accusations, we both know, are wrong
          D  E                     C#m F#m
It's not true, what they say about you
          Bm E                      A
It's not true, what they say about you

A             C#m          Bm7
I know you as generous and kind
            D  C#m Bm7 A
They were blind
Bm7                           E
With the injustice of this crazy world
F#m            E/G#       D
I know you as humble and fair
Bm7               E
How can anyone expect you to
C#m                         F#m
Solve all the problems, addressed to you?
Bm7                         E
They had too many, and your arms too few

Chorus:
Bm7
Don't let them tell you,
                                 A
don't let them tell you who you are
Bm7
Don't let them tell you,
                                 A
don't let them tell you who you are
Bm7
Don't let them tell you,
                                  A
don't let them tell you who you are

I heard them calling your name
In a way
That's supposed to make you feel bad
For the mess your father made
They want to open your wounds again
Turn the eyes of the world away
From their own well-hidden crimes
I want to tell you that I love you
But I know you can't hear me now
I know you can't hear me now

Chorus:
C
(Don't let them tell you,
 Em7                             A
don't let them tell you who you are
C
Don't let them tell you,
 Em7                             A
don't let them tell you who you are
C
 Don't let them tell you,
 Em7                             A
don't let them tell you who you are)

Bm7
Don't let them tell you,
                                 A
don't let them tell you who you are
Bm7
Don't let them tell you,
                                 A
don't let them tell you who you are
Bm7
Don't let them tell you,
                                 A
don't let them tell you who you are
