F#
Your smile's like a dark cloud
Can't wait for the fallout
C#
Big joke but the kids don't get it
Big words but it's not poetic
F#
Lost touch tryna save me
No time for it lately
C#
Big sigh but it's so dramatic

                D#m                      F#
It's not like I don’t care, don't understand
              C#
I'm not gonna get there holding your hand
                D#m                F#
Temperature is rising watch the sunset
              C#
Know I better say this before I forget

Chorus:
                      F#
I don't wanna be like you, ooh
                      C#
I don't wanna be like you, ooh
                      F#
I don't wanna be like you, ooh
                      C#
I don't wanna be like you, ooh

I'm trying to be patient
Decipher what you're saying
But I feel like I'm stuck inside of your imagination
Just like this conversation
It's never gonna end
Go fuck yourself and all of your friends

Chorus

It's not like I don't care, don't understand
I'm not gonna get there holding your hand
Said I gotta stay and trust the process
Know I better say this before I forget

Chorus
