If I Could Just Be Me

D A G A D

D                    A
I'd like to lay this old hammer down
G               A
Drive my pickup truck to town
G                      D
Find a friend and just hang around
G                  A
If I could just be me

D                    A
Grab a bobber and my old cane pole
G                      A
Spend a evenin' at the fishin' hole
G              D
Why I wouldn't hurt a soul
A                  D
If I could just be me

G                                 D
I've learned to live behind these fences
    A                          G       D
But I'm not the kind of man to just go along
G                            D           Bm
Now and then I need a chance to be who I am
E                      A    A7
Maybe sing a different song

D                        A
I need to put my worries on a shelf
G                        A
Take some time to get to know myself
G                     D
I wouldn't have to be nobody else
A            D
If I just be me

G                                 D
I've learned to live behind these fences
    A                          G       D

G                            D           Bm

E                      A

D                      A
If I didn't have these bills to pay
G                A
I I could really have my way
G                  D
I'd lay around and love on you all day
A                  D
If I could just be me

If I could just be me
A                  D
If I could just be me
A                  D
If I could just be me
A                  D
If I could just be me
