D   Em  Bm  G

[Verse 1]
 D
Why is it so hard to just be myself?
Em
I feel like I'm different from everyone else
 Bm                                            G
Yeah, why am I like this? Can somebody please tell me?
D
I look in the mirror and what do I see?
Em
I don't really know who's looking back at me
Bm                             G
I don't even know who I wanna be

[Pre-Chorus]
D                          Em
I don't need to know who I am yet
Bm                            G
I don't need to have a solid plan yet
D                           Em
I don't need to be the same as everyone else
Bm                            G
I just need to motherfuckin' love myself

[Chorus]
          D                       Em
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
          Bm               D      G
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
          D                       Em
I need to (I need to) I need to love myself
            Bm          D        G
I need to love myself before I love anyone else, yeah

[Verse 2]
D
No matter how hard I try or what I do
Em
I just can never fuckin' impress you
Bm                                        G
So why am I letting what you say get me down?
D
I spent my whole life thinking I was wrong
Em
And nobody likes me and it's all my fault
Bm                                        G
But I'm done with that shit, I finally figured out

[Pre-Chorus]

I just need to motherfuckin' love myself
