"That's Not Me"

(Brian Wilson / Tony Asher)

Verse 1:

A

I had to prove that I could make it alone

E7sus4 E7

But that's not me

A

I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now

E7sus4 E7

But that's not me

Bm7/F# E7

I could try to be big in the eyes of the world

Bm7/F# E7 C#m7 F#maj7 G#m7/F#

What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl

Chorus 1:

F#maj7

I'm a little bit scared

G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#

Cause I haven't been home in a long time

B

You needed my love

B7 E E7

And I know that I left at the wrong time

Verse 2:

My folks when I wrote them

Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me

I went through all kinds of changes

Took a look at myself and said that's not me

I miss my pad and the places I've known

And every night as I lay there alone I would dream

Chorus 2:

F#maj7

I once had a dream

G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#

So I packed up and split for the city

Gmaj7 Am7/G Gmaj7 Am7/G

I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty

C C7 F F7

I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready

Coda (repeat to fade):

F#maj7

I once had a dream

G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#

So I packed up and split for the city

F#maj7 G#m7/F# F#maj7 G#m7/F#

I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
