INTRO
E  B  C#m  B  F#m  B
hum, hum, hum...hum, hum


VERSE I
E        B     C#m                   B          F#m
I used to care so much about what others think about
A                                   B
Almost didn't have a thought of my own
E            B      C#m              B
The slightest remark would make me embark
         F#m
On the journey of self doubt
      A               B
But that was a while ago


PRECHORUS I
  A                 G#m
This girl has got stronger
      F#m                   E
If I knew then what I know now
                                 A         G#m       F#m 
I would have told myself don't worry any longer its okay



CHORUS
          A             B                E           C#m
Cause a face without freckles is like a sky without stars
A               B        C#m
Why waste a second not loving who you are
               A     B                E           B        C#m
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
                   A         B          A
They show your personality inside your heart
                        E
Reflecting who you are


OTHER
E  B  C#m  B  F#m  B
Who you are, who you are, who you are


VERSE II
I wondered if I could trade my body with somebody else in magazines
With the whole world full at my feet
I phantom worthy and would blame my failures on the ugliness I could see
When the mirror looked at me


PRECHORUS II
Sometimes I feel like the little girl who doesn't belong in her own world
But im getting better
And im reminding myself


CHORUS

Reflecting who you are
Reflecting who you are
Hmmm Whoooooo whoa hmmmm oooooo

Intro: Am F G G  4x

OhOhOhOh

YaYaYaYa
         Am                 F          G      G
If it's weird for girls to give guys flowers,
      Am             F      G   G
Then maybe that's a reason too,
             Am           F      G     G     
You're not climbing up my ivory tower,
        Am              F    G  G
So I'm comin' down for you,

       Am                 F        G           G
Is it wrong to write our names in love hearts,
       Am                  F        G    G
In the dust that's on the car you drive
          Am             F      G       G
Droppin' hints can only get you so far,
                Am             F     G   G
When you don't know that I'm alive

       Am             F          G   G
Is it wrong to be the instigator 
       Am            F          G   G
Is it bad to be the move maker
        Am            F            G
Guess I gotta be the first to say a
        G
to say a, to say a

[Chorus]
           Am
How do you do?
    F                G      
If you won't say it, I will,
    G      Am
How do you do?
     F                 G        
I'm really pleased to meet you,
    G      Am 
How do you do?
       F            G
Gotta say it how I feel it,
 G           Am    F  G  G
Say it or I will,

             Am             F         G         G
When you're hanging at the point of stalement,
     Am               F         G      G    
It's not the time to bite your tongue
           Am              F      G      G
So at the risk of looking really stupid,
     Am              F    G  G
I'm gunna take the plunge

       Am             F          G   G
Is it wrong to be the instigator  
      Am             F         G   G
Is it bad to be the move maker
         Am           F            G
Guess I gotta be the first to say a
        G         G
to say a, to say a

[CHORUS]

 G           Am   F  G  G
Say it or I will

            Am                               G
It's not a good life just sittin round drinkin tea
          E
Touching all each other
                    F
Exchanging pleasantries
           Am                    G
I've been too retired to sink except
          E 
Sick of crosswords
                  F     G
Now I want to connect

[CHORUS]

Am       F            G      
  Gotta say it how I feel it,
 G           Am   F  G  G
Say it or i will

How Do You Do

D G Bm7 G A D x2
Oh... 
Never find a love like this 
Oh... 
Never find a love like this

D Dmaj7 Bm7 G A D
We go back so far, 
swingin in your back yard, 
all the things that we used to do
 
D G Bm7 G  D
We were cool back in high school 
ooh I really liked you, 
must have been your attitude. 

D G Bm7 G A D
That's -why -you keep on runnin 
in and out of my mind. 

D G Bm7 G D
As the years they'll roll by, 
Baby, now I know why 
I keep comin back to you. 


Chorus:
D G Bm7 G A D
You're the only one that knows me, 
love it when you hold me, 
never find a love like this. 
Let me hear you say, 
now I'll never be lonely, 
look at what you've shown me, 
never find a love like this.

(The Rest follows the same pattern)

Love Like This

/ D / 

I am unwritten
Can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning
The pen's in my hand, ending unplanned


{Pre-Chorus}

D                         C  
Staring at the blank page before you
                  Bm
Open up the dirty window
                      C
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
D                          Em     
Reaching for something in the distance
                        C
So close you can almost taste it
C                  C
Release your inner visions


{Refrain}

                      Bm            Em                G
Feel the rain on your skin - no one else can feel it for you
     D             Bm
Only you can let it in
       Em            G                 D             Bm
No one else, no one else can speak the words on your lips
            Em             G
Drench yourself in words unspoken
          D                   Bm
Live your life with arms wide open
     Em          G
Today is where your book begins

                   D
The rest is still unwritten


/ D / 

I break tradition
Sometimes my tries are outside the lines
We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

{Pre-Chorus, Refrain twice}

The rest is still unwritten

{Pre-Chorus, hold "visions"}

{Refrain twice}

The rest is still unwritten (2x)

C        G        D        Em
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
               C        G        D        Em
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
           C        G
Everyday I fight for
D             Em
All my future somethings
                 C    G
A thousand little wars
  D                Em
I have to choose between
                C       G
I could spend a lifetime
        D                   Em
Earning things that I don't need
                       C     G
But that's like chasing rainbows
    D              Em
And coming home empty

           C
And if you strip me,
      G
Strip it all away
       D
If you strip me,
Em
What would you find
       C
If you strip me,
      G
Strip it all away
D        Em
Ill be alright

              C         
Take what you want
         G
Steal my pride
         D
Build me up
                  Em
Or cut me down to size
        C
Shut me out
              G
But I'll just scream
              D
Im only one voice in a million
    Em                        C
but you aint taking that from me
         G                         D
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4

              C          G
I dont need a microphone, yeah,
   D               Em
To say what I been thinking
                  C           G
My heart is like a loudspeaker
      D           Em 
Thats always on eleven

           C
And if you strip me,
      G
Strip it all away
       D
If you strip me,
Em
What would you find
       C
If you strip me,
      G
Strip it all away
D             Em
I'm still the same

              C
Take what you want
         G
Steal my pride
         D
Build me up
                  Em
Or cut me down to size
        C
Shut me out
              G
But I'll just scream
            D
Im only one voice in a million
    Em                        C
but you aint taking that from me
         G                         D
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4

C G              D         Em
   'Cause when it all boils down
                 C    G
At the end of the day
              D
It's what you do and say
     Em                C
That makes you who you are
          G
Makes you think about it,
       D
Think about it
        Em
Doesn't it
C                 G            D     Em
 Sometimes all it takes is one voice

              C
Take what you want
         G
Steal my pride
         D
Build me up
                  Em
Or cut me down to size
        C
Shut me out

But I'll just scream

Oh oh no you aint taking that from me x 4

There's greener pastures I'm thinking about

All I want is the wind in my hair

To face the fear but not feel scared

Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free

C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D              Em

I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
         C                              D
To carry love, to carry children of our own

                              G                     Em 
We are still kids, but we’re so in love, fighting against all odds
                  C               G  D
I know that we’ll be alright this ti-ime
               G                            Em 
Darling just hold my hand, be my girl, I’ll be your man
          C              D
I see my future in your eyes

Who lives down the lane.

2) All my mem'ries, gather round her, 

   D			 C                G
1) Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah       River.
2) miner's lady,         stranger to blue water.

                      Em  
1) Life is old there, older than the trees, 
2) Dark and dusty,    painted on the sky, 

   D
1) younger than the mountains
2) misty taste of moonshine

   C			G
1) growin' like a breeze.
2) teardrop in my eye.

              G              D            Em        C
       Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong.

 	I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,
            C        G              D 
        the radio reminds her of my home far away
            Em               D            C
        and driving down the road I get a feeling

        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G

             F                    C                G

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
