 C

VERSE !
Em   C          Em          C
                     C                          G  C
      I wanna paint my face and pretend that I am someone else
Em          C          Em             C
G                      C                                    G
     Sometimes I get so fed up, I don't even want to look at myself
                   D                                                                       C
     But people have problems that are worse than mine
                       D                                                                                              C
     I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
                     D                                                               C
     But I hate the way you look at me, I have to say
                    Em                         C  Em
     I wish I could start over

CHORUS:
Am  C   G                D                Am
     I am slowly falling apart
                                  C          G                   D
            Am
     I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start
                                       C             G      D      Am
     And you might think it's easy being me
                         C (hold)
     You just stand still, look pretty

Play the INTRO

VERSE 2
Em          C        Em              C
         G                     C   G  C
     Sometimes I find myself shakin' in the middle of the night
Em        C       Em                C          G                 C                      G
     And then it hits me and I can't even believe this is my life
                  D                                     C
     Cause people have problems that are worse than mine
                  D                                                                                         C
     I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
                D                                                                  C
     And I wish that everyone would go and shut their mouth
                  Em                           C               Em
     I'm not strong enough to deal with it
