 Dm Count up your portion, count up your checks F Either you're fam or you're comin' at my neck Am When you gonna freeze with the cool dramatics? I'm not inspired by your foolish practice Butter your bullshit, set up your fence I'm just the chicken giving you the egg Soon you’re gonna see that your breath was wasted Don't speak too soon on your doubts, you're making Am A big deal out of a little thing G F Why should I try to conform to formulated pasts Dm E When clearly all my instincts led to something more magical? Chorus: Am Dm Am I just a number 'cause it seems like that's your goal? F E You push us past our limits just to watch decimals grow Am Dm Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke F E Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time before G Dm And I don't like your teachings and your criticisms lack Am E The potential to pageantry, my solid golden path Am Dm To this, I hope my future is a mile, clairvoyant F E There's no controlling the imagination on a send Take me to Venus, let me explode I’m ready to pop like a volcano Jump over me like you're playing hot lava Emotions on one hundred thousand, who’s gonna Shake me like soda creme? But of course Use all your words to distract from the source Of where all the growth on the paper happens Leave me alone to my own concoction Prickin' all my fingertips to carve out many roads Pushin' out the petals from the bud of what I know Chorus: Am I just a number? 'Cause it seems like that’s your goal You push us past our limits just to watch decimals grow Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke Until I prove you wrong like I've done time and time before, and All my intuition says is expansion comes first, but Not just by material, I'm talkin' 'bout in here My heart space and my cranium must be loved too, my dear Don't push me to the edge until I'm useless and can't feel F Am They replaced their search for knowledge Dm With the reach of many material gains F Am They lack the tenderness of the sensitive Dm Empathetic but he's cryin' from the pain F Am It's too late to grow their frame Dm In their mind, seems like it's already made F Am No use in arguin' with someone who doesn't Dm F Am Dm Wanna cry or retice worthy of creation F E Am I just a number? Dm Am I just a number? F E Am I just a number? Dm Am I just a number? Chorus: Am I just a number? 'Cause it seems like that's your goal You push us past our limits just to watch our numbers grow Oh, I need a reason why I'm looked at like a joke Until I prove you wrong which I've done time and time before, and All my intuition says is expansion comes first, but Not just by material, I'm talkin' 'bout in here My heart space and my cranium must be loved too, my dear Don't push me to the edge until I'm useless and can't feel You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  Dm  E  Em  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
