Letdown Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Glass Child
                Dm
What if I change the things I say
                      C
so it sounds better in your ears
          F
I can tell you exactly
                             C
what you want to hear

                Dm
What if i change the way i dress
                     C
So it looks better from your view
          F
I can pout my lips to fame
             E                        Dm   / C
and be pretty instead of true

Dm / C / F / E
I've been trying to stay real
and true and proud of who I am
All those ideals of how to look
I've been trying not to care

Dm / C / F / E
But I'm still holding my breath
I'm still watching every step
I'm still tip-toeing away
when I'm getting to ashamed of myself

Dm / C

                                     Dm
I don't want to be your let down
                                     F
I'm scared like hell I'm not enough
                C                             C
I don't to be your failure anymore

                               Dm 
I don't want to be your let down
                                   F
I'm screaming loud without a sound
                       C
Have to find a way to
                      C
be the best of me
E                                            Dm
Failure scares the hell out of me

Dm / C / F / E
And the music that they're liking
says nothing about the way
That I am disappearing
so I'll keep it to myself

Dm / C / F / E
Though I'm mostly quiet
I've got a lot to say
but nothing seems to please you
so I'll keep it to myself  

Dm / C

                                     Dm
I don't want to be your let down
                                     F
I'm scared like hell I'm not enough
                C                             C
I don't to be your failure anymore

                               Dm 
I don't want to be your let down
                                   F
I'm screaming loud without a sound
                       C
Have to find a way to
                      C
be the best of me
E                                            Dm
Failure scares the hell out of me
 
Mid8:

F                                        C
If I'm not good enough for you
                                           Dm
Am I not good enough for you?
                      Dm
Your expectations I can't live up to, no

F                                 C
I just want to be someone
                                        Dm
To mean something to anyone
                     Dm
I've got to hurry up to be someone

F                               E
I am fading can you wake me up
              Dm                               Dm
So I can be, all those things that I've been dreaming of
F                                    E                    F   /   C
I'm the fall, this is the cutting of my wings   
Dm 
Oh you're killing my belief
             C
to be myself
                                F               E
and if I can't make my own way I quit
F / C / Dm
Yeah
