Normal

	  		
Intro: 
              C                               G 
I'm sorry for all the things I said when I forgot, 
                   F                 F 
I was trying to be normal. 
                       C              G            F        F 
And I'm sorry for that lie that I was trying to be normal. 

Verse 1:
 
                  C                          G 
I was made with a little bit a West Coast, a little bit a South, 
F                          F 
I get all my crazy from my mom and my dad. They say: 
 C                       G                F             F 
"Be who you are, there's no such thing as normal" and I know it's a little bit 
C    E            F                 F 
1991 pop song, to say, "Just be yourself". 
              C    E               F               F 
So, call me a 1991 pop song, don't wanna be nobody else. 

 
C               E              F             F 
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do, 
    C              E              F                  F 
so, call the restaurant and set a table for two. 
    C              E                    * Am        F 
And I'll pull up a chair because I got to learn somehow, somewhere. 
C               E       * Am         F 
Me, myself, and I, are sorry for the way. 


Verse 2:
 
            C                 G            F         F 
We tried to make it seem like   we're neurotypical 
        C                      G              F             F 
when we know there's just some things that we can't control. 
           C                        G 
But I just wanted to fit in, didn't wanna stand out. 
                F                                 F 
Didn't want you looking at me the way you looking at me right now 
  C                  G            F         F 
before you knew that I'm not neurotypical. 
                  C    E            F                 F 
It's a little bit 1991 pop song, to say, "Just be yourself". 
              C    E               F               F 
So, call me a 1991 pop song, don't wanna be nobody else. 

 
C               E              F             F 
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do, 
    C              E              F                  F 
so, call the restaurant and set a table for two. 
    C              E                    * Am        F 
And I'll pull up a chair because I got to learn somehow, somewhere. 
C               E  * Am            F        F         F 
Me, myself, and I. Me, myself, and I. 


Post-Chorus
 
C                               C 
Piano here, 'cause that's where it belongs, 
    C                  C                            G* 
two minutes in, is the perfect part of the song for feelings. 

Bridge:
   C                                          C 
If I'm gonna say sorry, I'm gonna say it to myself, 
                                            F 
you take a lot of hate from the doubt I manifest. 
                                       F 
Listening to listeners lists makes inhibitions 
                                             F 
that did not exist until the existence of my listening. 
                                    G 
Like a mirror or a scale is the definition of you 
                                F 
I'm sorry to my body for what I put you through. 
                                                      F 
Not thanking you for walking with me when my mind was walking from me. 
                                            C 
How you carried life inside me gave me more joy than pounds could give me. 
                      C 
I'm sorry to my soul, I was just a kid, 
                                 Am 
I didn't realize my profits were helping let you go. 
                             Am 
The people that I trusted to teach me everything 
                                             F 
became professors in the machine that's anti-original. 
                 F                       G 
But I don't even have to be like anybody else, 
                  G                         A 
I know it's so cliché but I just wanna be myself. 
                  A                           F 
I'm sorry for the way I told you normal was a thing 
                 G                                (C) 
and if you are imperfect then you know just what I mean. 

 
C               E              F             F 
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do. 
    C              E              F         F 
So, call the restaurant and set a table for two 
    C              E                    * Am        F 
and I'll pull up a chair because I got to learn somehow, somewhere. 
C               E  * Am            F 
Me, myself, and I, oh. 

C               E              F             F 
Me, myself, and I, we got some growing up to do. 
    C              E              F         F 
So, call the restaurant and set a table for two 
    C              E                    * Am        F 
and I'll pull up a chair because I got to learn somehow, somewhere 
     C        E            F 
(Somehow, somewhere)

C 
Be who you are, be who you are.
