   I just wanna   be what I am
          B 
   I have got one life to live

   I'll play my cards the way I can

                F#m
   No, I don't wanna be a star

   I'm no computer, I'm no car
                   B                 F#m
   I can't be programmed, told what to do

   Once you've learned to say your name

                  F#m
   No, I don't wanna be a star

   Shooting champagne, sniffing caviar
                  B           F#m
   I don't have to prove anything
         B
   For I am what I am

   I just wanna be the best me
            B
   If that means being nobody
               C# 
   Then that's just alright by me

                     F#m
   'Cause I just wanna rock and roll

   Still I don't have to sell my soul

   Take it or leave it, is what I say
                 B
   This is the thing I wanna do
              C#
   And I will do it my way

   Rock and roll
