Verse 1:

            
 I had to prov

              
e that I could

              
 make it alone

           
 now, but that

          
's not me.
            
I wanted to sh

              
ow how indepen

              
dent I'd grown

           
 now, but that

          
's not me.

Bridge 1:

           
I could try to

              
 be big in the

 
 eyes of the w

orld,
           
What matters t

             
o me is what I

             
 could be, to 

           
just one girl.

Chorus 1:

         
I'm a little b

              
it scared, 'co

            
s I haven't be

             
en home in a l

     
ong time.

         
You needed my 

            
love, and I kn

              
ow that I left

         
 at the wrong 

       
time.

Verse 2:

   
My folks when 

I wrote them, 

told 'em what 

I was up to sa

id;
           
 That's not me

 
.
              
I went through

 
 all kinds of 

changes, took 

a look at myse

lf and said;
           
 That's not me

 
.

Bridge 2:

           
I miss my pad 

        
and the places

 I've known,
           
And every nigh

            
t, as I lay th

              
ere alone, I w

          
ould dream...

Chorus 2:

         
I once had a d

            
ream, so I pac

              
ked up and spl

y.
         
I soon found o

           
ut that my lon

              
ely life wasn'

        
t so pretty.

        
I'm glad I wen

t much more su

              
re that we're 

  
ready.
