I would always try and get it all

Put it on the blind and bet it all now,

If I wasn't reaching for the stars

I say whatever

I couldn't let slide what people said 
D 
Seven hundred voices in my head, 
    A            E 
And I don't slow down (don't slow, don't slow) 
    F#m 
And everybody's else's eyes on me 
D 
Couldn't take my disguise of me 
    A             E 
And I, I turn it around!

Tell me a dreamer, and leave me all alone!

Praise me into glory, 
                A 
Curse me if you want to,

Tell me who I am!  Am!   Am!
