Tom: Em
Em
Damn, damn. Damn, damn. Damn, damn
[Verse 1]
Em Bm
First he comes up and he tells ya, hey, I'm bored with the whole musical scene
Em Bm
And then he says, I've seen your act, it's the greatest thing
Em Am
But the more he gets to know ya, the more he shows ya he's off the lunatic fringe
Bm Am Em
You see as silly as it seems, I'm so tired of living out somebody else's dream
[Chorus]
Em Bm
Who do you think you are, are you a poet, a lover, a father, a rock and roll star
Em
Who do I think I am (Who do I think I am)
Bm
I love my partner in life, my wife, my children, man
Em
Who do you think you are (Who do you think you are)
Am
Well I messed up, I mucked up oh I should shut up
Bm Am Em
Who do you think you are (Who do you think you are), who do I think I am
[Verse 2]
Em Bm
You mean a thousand different faces, but it's that same old reclaim
Em Bm
And a thousand different places (don't you know home), let me introduce you to who I mean
Em Am
Then you get impatient, and then you start to scream
Bm Am Em
You see as silly as it seems, you're living out somebody else's dream
[Chorus]
Em Bm
You're living out someone else's dream. You're living out somebody else's dream
Em Bm
You're living out somebody else's dream. You're living out somebody else's dream
Em Am Bm Am Em
So tired of it, of living
[Verse 3]
N.C. Em Bm
And people say it must be nice to be noticed, and you say, it don't affect me at all
Em Bm
But some day this pretending it must stop and you must protest, do the people have the right to know it all
Em
Do they know it all? (Are they told it all)
Am Bm Am Em
Do you know it all? (I don't know at all), as silly as it seems
[Chorus]
Em Bm
What did that mean? I mean it was a fob, a flash, a scheme
Em Bm
What do you mean? You're living out someone elses dream
Em Am
What does that mean? It means I dont know man, let's go man
Bm Am Em
I'll never do this again
[Outro]
Em Bm
You're living out someone else's dream. You're living out someone elses dream
Bm
Who says this song has anything in common with you at all
Em Am
You're living out someone elses dream. That's what I mean
Bm Am Em
You see, as silly as it seems...
