DABm
Looking at me, through the eye of a needle,
DABm
Is a scary thing to do.
DABmDABm
I feel a mole hill lies in front of me, to climb.
DABm
Is your primary purpose in life,
DABm
To scrutinize every move I make?
DABmDABm
'cause if it is, I think your wasting precious time.
[Pre-Chorus]

And I know, that my job is pleasing you, but...

I am what I am,

The way god made me.

Don't try and change me.
[Verse]
DABm
Well I know I have my weaknessess,
DABm
As you point them out to me.
DABmDABm
But I'll confront the spots of doubt as they arise.
DABm
Never born to be a leader,
DABm
But I'll take my role with pride.
DABmDABm
'cause a soldier with his honours, lies inside.
[Pre-Chorus]

Well I know that I have got a job to do,

As you say, that my job revolves around you, but...
