F#m Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy I know I'm my best friend No one cares, but I'm so much stronger I'll fight until the end To escape from the true false world Undamaged destiny Can't get caught in the endless circle Ring of stupidity Chorus: A G F#m Out for my own, out to be free A G F#m One with my mind, they just can't see A G F#m No need to hear things that they say A G F#m Life's for my own to live my own way Rape my mind and destroy my feelings Don't tell me what to do I don't care now 'cause I'm on my side And I can see through you Feed my brain with your so called standards Who says that I ain't right? Break away from your common fashion See through your blurry sight Chorus: Out for my own, out to be free One with my mind, they just can't see No need to hear things that they say Life's for my own to live my own way F#m B A F#m G F#m B A F#m G See them try to bring the hammer down No damn chains can hold me to the ground Em Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way Life's for my own to live my own way You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Em  F#m  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
