let me be
the turtles
(p.f. sloan)

intro:

d a d6 e [2x; 12-string enters 2nd time]
/ / / / / / / /

verse 1:

d e d e
please don’t mistake me or try to make me
d e a
the shadow of anybody else
d e d e
i ain’t the him or her you think i am
d e a
i’m just trying hard to be myself
e a
though society’s goal is to be part of the whole
d e
that may sound good to you, not to me

chorus:

a
let me be, let me be
d e
to think like i want to
a
let me be, let me be
d e
that’s all i ask of you
d c#m bm [1, 2: repeat intro 3: to coda]
i am what i am and that’s all i ever can be

verse 2:

don’t try to plan me or understand me
i can’t stand to be understood
i could never give in to or ever live up to
being like you think i should
i’ve got some inner need that i’m tryin’ to heed
i can’t take hand-me-down destiny

[repeat chorus]

verse 3:

don’t try to change me or rearrange me
to satisfy the selfishness in you
i’m not a piece of clay to mold to your moves each day
and i’m not a p-wn to be told how to move
i’m sorry i ain’t the fool you thought would play by your rules
a to-each-is-own philosophy

[repeat chorus]

coda:

a
(…be)

d e a
i said that’s all i ever can be [repeat to fade]
