F                              G
I don't wanna be your personal Jesus
Am                                C
I don't wanna live inside of that flame
F                            G
In a way I wanna be my own believer
Am                                C
I don't wanna play your video game
F                                  G
I don't wanna be the center of the universe
Am                              C
I don't wanna be a part of that shame
F                          G
In a way I wanna be my own redeemer
Am                            C
I don't wanna play your video game

F                                 G
I don't care if everybody else is into it
Am                             C
I don't care if it's a popular refrain
F                              G
I don't wanna be a puppet in a theater
Am                            C
I don't wanna play your video game
F                                     G
You don't wanna be the one who has to pay for it
Am                                    C
You don't wanna be the one who has to change
F                               G
All you want is what the resumé tells you
Am                            C
I don't wanna play your video game
