Supposed To Be Chords

(ver. 1)
Bad Books
[Intro]
D Gm x3
D A

[Verse 1]
    D             Bm           Em                             A
I'm waiting for a word to feel different from the others I've heard
    D             Bm          Em                        A
I'm tired of my voice but I'm bound to it, these are my choices
     D             Bm
It's endless, this debate
    Em                         A
The misapplied philosophy, the shadows in the cave
    D              Bm
The two dogs at my feet
    Em                           A
And I decide which one will die, who starves and who eats
    F#m                       F#
The more I sit and stare they look the same to me
    Bm                   Bm
They offer up a bleeding question in their teeth
    Em                                    A
And I'm surprised when it's my voice that speaks

[Chorus]
G                         Em                       D
What am I supposed to be? What am I supposed to be now?

[Instrumental]
D Gm
D A

[Verse 2]
         D              Bm
And it's quiet, and I'm alone
    Em                              A
And indifferent to the things I can know
     D                Bm
I've exhausted my interest
       Em                              A
In the contradicting plates in me, the struggling shift
        D             Bm
And I'm sorry for the mess
   Em                          A
To you for sure, or even more, myself, most, I guess
    F#m                            F#
See once the bells that rang throughout my hanger head
     Bm                  Bm
They caution me awake we thought that you were dead
   Em                       A
Go testify your fundamental need

[Chorus]
G                         Em                       D       Bm   B
What am I supposed to be? What am I supposed to be now?
Em                        G                        D
What am I supposed to be? What am I supposed to be now?

[Instrumental]
D Gm
D A

D Bm Em A x2

[Verse 3]
F#m                 F#
Pirouette the waltz across the tight
            Bm                            Bm
We'll tie a dream that pulls you asked to colonize your mind
    Em                                 A
The life you want, the life you likely need

[Chorus]
G                         Em                       D       Bm   B
What am I supposed to be? What am I supposed to be now?
Em                        G                        Bm    E  A
What am I supposed to be? What am I supposed to be now?

[Outro]
G                  A
Now that I can see what I'm supposed to be now
