Town Chords & Lyrics - The Lads (new Zealand)

[VERSE 1]
[B]I used to be so [C#7]scared of [E]going to Manner[B]s Mall
[B]Of walking past those [C#7]staring eyes that [E]made me feel so [B]small
[B]Creeping up and [C#7]down trying to [E]find a fault to [B]see
[B]So they could lock me [C#7]up inside and [E]throw away the [B]key

[VERSE 2]
[B]I've tried being [C#7]someone else just [E]so I could belong[B]
[B]I've lived my life in [C#7]fear of putting [E]one foot [B]wrong
[B]Although your words may [C#7]hurt me it's [E]time for me to [B]go
[B]I'm trying trying to be m[C#7]yself now.......And I [E]think that you should [B]know that...

[CHORUS]
[G]I can go into [D]town by myself if I want to
Look [A]around at the world with my own eyes
I don't [E]have to be afraid
[G]Why do we try to be the [D]same competing with each other
All dressed [A]up in brown cords and pyjamas
[E]Pretending to be cool

[VERSE 3]
[B]I watched the world go [C#7]by through the [E]window of my [B]mind
[B]But how I saw [C#7]myself made friends [E]hard to [B]find
[B]I wasn't sure you [C#7]liked me [E]although I think you [B]tried
[B]I wanted you to [C#7]like me mor[E]e, to fill the [B]hole inside

[VERSE 4]
[B]Accepting who I [C#7]am didn't [E]come from being the [B]best
[B]Or earning popu[C#7]larity by [E]passing all your [B]tests
[B]The thing that helped me[C#7] most Was when the re[E]alisation [B]came
[B]That there is a God who [C#7]love's me, Who [E]knows me by my [B]name
