A                                                     A/D
When i was just a kid Everything i did, was to be like him

      A
Under my skin

A
My father always thought If i was strong and fought

                   Asus   A              D
Not like some albatross, id begin To fit in

       A      F#m7       C#7        D 
Look at me powerless and holding my breath

       A       F#m7         C#7           D
Trying hard to repress what scared him to death

       Bm    A/C#   E  A      C#m7    D
It was never easy     to be his type of man

          G     E     C#7        F#m
To breathe freely was not in his plan

        Bm7  A/C#    D              Bm7   A   E
And the best part of me   Is what he wouldn't see

    D      A       D
I'm not my fathers son

    D       A        Bm7     A/C#    D
I'm not the image of what he dreamed of

         Bm7         A/C#            A    Bm7  A/C#  D
With the strength of Sparta and  the  patience  of  Job

              E/F#  F#m7  Bm7           E/F#  F#m7  Bm7
Still couldn't be   the   one   To echo what  he'd  done

           E       Esus         A      E            D
And mirror what    was    not    in     me

     A            F#m        C#7      D
So I jumped in my dreams and found an escape

        A        F#m         C#7        D
Maybe i went to extremes of leather and lace

        Bm7          A/C#    E    A      C#m7     D
But the world seems brighter  six inches off the ground

        G          E         C#7       F#m        Bm7    A/C#   D
And the air seemed lighter   I was profound and i felt   so     proud

        Bm7  A   E
Just to live out loud

D      A       D
I'm not my fathers son

    D       A        Bm7   A/C#   D
I'm not the image of what he dreamed of

         Bm7         A/C#            A    Bm7  A/C#  D
With the strength of sparta and  the  patience  of  job

              E/F#  F#m7  Bm7           E/F#  F#m7  Bm7
Still couldn't be   the   one   To echo what  he'd  done

           E       Esus         A      E            D
And mirror what    was    not    in     me

Bm7                    D/E        C#m7               F#m
The endless story of expectations swirling inside my mind

G#m7  F#7/A#    Bm7
Wore  me     down     

Bm7         D/E     E         C#7            F#m           
I came to a realization and i finally turned around

E    D              Bm     A/C#     D       E  
To   see       That i could just be me
