E          G
I was born with blue skin

E                  G
Tied in knots that I'm still in

E               G
When the doctor cut me free

E               G                D A
Man, he made an enemy out of me

A             E
I should have stayed

D       A           E
Crawled back in and hid

        G              C           E
But I'm glad that I've done what I did


E  G  E  G

E            G
I was raised by a stranger

E                   G
Loved every word he said to me

E               G
Kept me fat and free from danger

E                      G       D A
I was the queen of the colony

A         E
I left my home

D     A        E
Still a stupid kid

        G              C           Bm
And I'm glad that I've done what I did

D          A
I can't complain

G         C
Oh, but I do

D       A
All the same

G       C       E
I won't win or lose


E  G  E  G

E                  G
I met someone when I was older

E             G
And I fell so deep in love

E               G
When I felt our touch grow colder

E                      G                D A
I crushed the cage and killed the dove

A          E
I couldn't look

D A          E
I shut my eyelids

        G              C           Bm
And I'm glad that I've done what I did


D          A
I can't complain

G         C
Oh, but I do

D       A
All the same

G       C       E
I won't win or lose


E                  G
Live each day like it's my first

E              G
People tell me that I'm blessed

E                  G
All I see is where I come from

E                  G                 D A
I hope to trust to know what's best


A      E
I made mistakes

D A              E
I jumped off the grid

        G         C           E
But I'm glad I've done what I did

              C           E    G
I'm glad I've done what I did

D          A
I can't complain

G         C
Oh, but I do

D       A
All the same

G       C       E
I won't win or lose
