(Riff)
   
   
Someone falls to pieces    
Sleeping all alone    
Someone kills the pain    
Spinning in the silence    
She finally drifts away    
Someone gets excited    
In a chapel yard    
And catches a boquet    
Another lays a dozen    
White roses on a grave    
   
  
D   
Yeah   
   
   
  
    Am           C               F     Dm   
To be yourself is all that you can do, yeah   
   Am            C                F  Dm    
To be yourself is all that you can do

Riff  
   
Someone finds salvation    
In everyone    
Another only pain    
Someone tries to hide himself    
Down inside himself he prays    
Someone swears his true love    
Until the end of time    
Another runs away    
Separate or united 
F             Dm   
Healthy or insane

    Am           C               F  Dm   
And be yourself is all that you can do     
   Am           C                F  Dm   
To be yourself is all that you can do    
   Am           C                F  Dm          
To be yourself is all that you can do     
   Am           C                F   
To be yourself is all that you can dooo

Even when you've paid enough
