What I Am

• Verse 1

Verse 1
G
 I've been drinking absinthe
Em                        G               Em
  I just did the math, it ain't adding up
                  G
I've had enough of running 'round this board game
Em                            G               Em
  You can know your own name, I won't give it up


Pre-Chorus
C          D
 Am I crazy? Am I foolish?
C           D
 Am I stupid for playin' these games with you?


Chorus
                G
If I told you I loved you
                        C
Would you say that it's fucked up?
                      G
If I told you they're flyin'
                       C
Would you say that you looked up?
      Bm
Don't take me for what I'm sayin'
     C
Just take me for what I am
       D
'Cause this is where I'm stayin'
   C
My two feet are in the sand


Verse 2
G                          Em                          G
 I've been readin' old shit  and I can't make sense of it
                             Em
Ain't no conspiracy that can save me
G                    Em                         G
 Livin' in the moment  feels good to me till it hurts
          Em
And I need  somebody


Pre-Chorus
C          D
 Am I crazy? Am I foolish?
C           D
 Am I stupid for playin' these games with you?


Chorus
                G
If I told you I loved you
                        C
Would you say that it's fucked up?
                      G
If I told you they're flyin'
                       C
Would you say that you looked up?
      Bm
Don't take me for what I'm sayin'
     C
Just take me for what I am
       D
'Cause this is where I'm stayin'
   C
My two feet are in the sand


Bridge
Am           C
  Take me as I am
             G                  D
I'm tired of dancin' around the point
Am                C
  Sharp and it is jagged
                  G                      D
Like the shape of glass and it steals my voice


Chorus
                G
If I told you I loved you (Oh)
                        C
Would you say that it's fucked up?
                      G
If I told you they're flyin'
                       C
Would you say that you looked up? (Looked up)
      Bm
Don't take me for what I'm sayin' (Don't)
     C
Just take me for what I am
       D
'Cause this is where I'm stayin'
   C
My two feet are in the sand


Outro
                G
If I told you I loved you
                        C
Would you say that it's fucked up?
                      G
If I told you they're flyin'
                       C
Would you say that you looked up?
      Bm
Don't take me for what I'm sayin' (Ooh)
     C
Just take me for what I am
       D
'Cause this is where I'm stayin'
   C
My two feet are in the sand
