The Way I Am Chords

[Intro]
E    A    E   A   B7
 
[Verse 1]
             E                D  A
Wish I were down on some blue bayou,
              E                 B7
With a bamboo cane stuck in the sand.
                 E                 D  A
But the road I'm on, don't seem to go there,
          E                 B7               E
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
 
 
[Chorus]
          A                E
The way I am, don't fit my shackles,
          B7        E
The way I am, reality.
                             D   A
I can almost see that bobber dancing,
          E                 B7               E
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
 
[Instrumental]
E   A   E  A   E  E7
 
 
[Verse 2]
         E                   D  A
Wish I enjoyed what makes my living,
           E               B7
Did what I do with willing hands.
           E                      D    A
Some would run, oh but that ain't like me,
          E                 B7               E    E7
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
 
 
[Chorus]
          A                E
The way I am, don't fit my shackles,
          B7        E
The way I am, reality.
                             D   A
I can almost see that bobber dancing,
          E                 B7              E
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
 
       E                 B7           E        A
I just dream and keep on being the way   I am.
