[Verse]

F#m                A                      F#m
You never say that I can't do what I want to
F#m                   A               F#m
I just got to believe it and it will be
A              Cm                    Bm
I think that's crazy it's gotta take more to be adored
Bm
Like you're legitimate

[Pre-Chorus]

F#m
The crude and shallow
C#                   F#m
Act like such royalty

[Refrain]

N.C
'cause all I hear them say is

[Chorus]

F#m         Am    A     F#m
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
F#m
Look at me, I've got self-esteem
A                          D#m                   C#
I'm sick of all the fakin' that it takes to make it big
 C#
'cause all I hear them say is
F#m         Am    A     F#m
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
F#m
Look at me, I belong on a widescreen
A                         C#            F#m
Forget the talent it's so insignificant

[Verse]

F#m
What's so wrong with
F#m
Wantin' to sing a song 'bout my inner frustrations?
F#m
Maybe you could identify... We're not perfect
F#m
So why should we pretend?
F#m
I just want to end
F#m
Your need for me to be ostentatious

[Verse]

F#m            A             C#m
You just want somebody with attitude
F#m
A strong persona you'd
F#m
Like to aspire to
F#m
And I can understand that
A
But it's not germane
F#m
Forget the art
F#m
You just want an accessory

[Refrain]

A              Cm                    Bm  Bm
I believe ego-trippin' don't flatter you

[Pre-Chorus]

F#m
Every time I see them strut it
C#           C#m                F#m
Something in me's gotta shut it down, down, down

[Refrain]

N.C
'cause all I hear them say is

[Chorus]
F#m         Am    A     F#m
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
F#m
Look at me, I've got self-esteem
A
I'm sick of all the fakin'
Dm                       C#
That it takes to make it big'
C#
Cause all I hear them say is
F#m         Am    A     F#m
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
F#m
Look at me, I belong on a widescreen
A                         N.C
Forget the talent it's so insignificant

[Bridge]
D
I look around
             C              Cm
All I see is unchecked vanity
D                           C#
And a desperate need to believe

[Chorus]
N.C               C     F#m
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
F#m
Look at me, I've got self-esteem
A
I'm sick of all the fakin'
D#m                      C#
That it takes to make it big
C#
'cause all I hear them say is
F#m         Am    A     F#m
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah
F#m
Look at me, I belong on a widescreen
A                         C#
Forget the talent it's so insignificant
