[Verse 2]
Fmaj7               Ebmaj7
Every morning, when you wake up
    Bbmaj7     Fmaj7         Ebmaj7
You put on a new disguise
Fmaj7            Ebmaj7                   Fmaj7         Ebmaj7
How long did you think it would take me to realize?
Bbmaj7               Am7
Girl, the things you were ain't real
D7                       Dm7
  You never tell me just how you feel
                Gm     Am7      Bbmaj7    C
Girl, you could be      so very beautiful

When you are who you are

Bbmaj7       Am      Gm              F
People never seem to want to be themselves
Bbmaj7         Am                   Gm7
So they end up running in circles confused
        Eb                       C7
Yes, confused, just like everyone else

Fmaj7                 Ebmaj7                    Fmaj7   Ebmaj7
Just how long did you think it would take me to realize?
Bbmaj7              Am7
