Intro: C G Bb F X2

Verse 1:
[C] DonR[G]17;t say that[Bb] you know me
You ne[F]ver knew the first thing at all
[C] Still y[G]ou should have t[Bb]old me
Took ever[F]ything, selling it off
[C] These h[G]oles in your st[Bb]ories
As m[F]any as there’s holes in the wall
[Bb] You told me that you like the old me
[F] ‘Cause the new me is telling you

Chorus:
[C]I Ref[Bb]use
[F]To fit into this lame idea you’ve al[C]ways ha[Bb]d for me
[F]I don’t want to be what you want me to be

Verse 2:
I hear you complaining ‘cause I’m not the same
But I won’t be missing the place that I came
I know that it’s risky but all bets are off
This is my life, so whatever the cost, if I’m lost
Would you hold it against me
And make me pay for every step of the way
I know that you’ve already told me
You don’t like the new me at all
You told me that you miss the old me
And that I couldn’t be happy at all ‘cause?

Chorus:
I Refuse
To fit into this lame idea you’ve always had for me
I’m not going to be what you want me to be

Bridge:
[Bb]I know that you’ve al[F]ready told me
You don’t like the new m[Bb]e at all
You told me that you used to k[F]now me
You really never knew me at a[Bb]ll
But darling change is a go[F]od thing
I see for m[Bb]yself Change is a g[F]ood thing
Spelling it o[Bb]ut Change is a g[F]ood thing Can see for myself

Verse 3:
Don’t say that you know me
You never knew the first thing at all
Still you should have told me
Took everything, selling it off
