Gloria Gaynor - I am what I am
Vocal + Piano
[F]I am what I [Am]am I am my [Bb]own special cre[Gm7]ation.[C7]
[F]So, come take a [Am]look, give me the [Bb]hook or the o[Gm7]vation. [C7]
It's [F]my [Dm7]world that I [F]want to have a [C]little pride in;
[F] my [Dm7]world, and it's [Bb]not a place I [Gm7]have to [C7]hide in.
[F]Life's not worth a [Am]damn 'til you can [Bb]say I [Gm7]am [C7]what I
