[Verse]:
Bbm           Ab
My art isn't mine
              Db          Ab    Eb
Cause i know that you’re tuning in
Bbm                Ab
All the things id like to sing
     Db     Ab    Eb
You tell me are a sin
 Bbm           Ab
Water myself down for you
 Db    Ab      Eb
Filter my own thoughts
 Bbm              Ab
Lace the page in metaphor
 Db      Ab       Bbm       Eb  Gb
Let you think i'm not who i am
      Eb   Gb
Who i am

[Bridge]:
       Bbm      F   Gb         Db
But im sick of fairytales and cryptids
Bbm     F       Gb   Db
Carefully vague, ambiguous
Bbm       F       Gb       Db
Just once ill say just how it is
Bbm      F    Gb    Gb
Each day i remind myself this...

[Chorus]:
Db
  I am my soul
Gb
  Im not my body or name
Bbm
  But elio
Eb                              Bbm
  Would be my choice if i could change
Bbm                Eb                 Gb
  I'd still be the same all except my name
     Gbm        Db  Eb
  My name would resonate
     Gb      Gbm     Db
  My name my name my name
Bbm Ab Gb Db
Elio-o-o-o-o
Bbm Ab Gb Gb
Elio-o-o-o-o

[Verse]:
 Bbm          Ab
Spiderman and peter pan
   Db     Ab       Bbm
I wish i felt like me
 Bbm              Ab
Take the pen and write again
   Db     Ab       Bbm
А cryptid running free
 Bbm          Ab
Give it time another rhyme
    Db     Ab       Bbm
And maybe then i’ll see
 Bbm                 Ab
Nothing’s wrong with me at all
    Db     Ab       Bbm
The box doesn't fit me
    Db      Ab     Bbm
I'd love to be as free
     Eb    Gb
As a boy
     Eb    Gb
As a boy
        Bbm      F   Gb         Db
And I'm sick of fairytales and cryptids
Bbm     F      Gb      Db
All to just conceal a secret
Bbm     F      Gb         Db
Really made me feel like this is
Bbm     F     Gb      Gb
Somehow about you, it isn't
(it isn’t!)
Db
  I am my soul
Gb
  I'm not my body or name
Bbm
  But elio
Eb                              Bbm
  Would be my choice if I could change
Bbm                Eb
  I'd still be the same
Eb              Gb
  All except my name
     Gbm        Db  Eb
  My name would resonate
     Gb      Gbm     Db
  My name my name my name

[Outro]:
Bbm  Eb                        Bbm
  I know there's nothing i can do
Bbm    Eb                  Bbm
  If i wanna still talk to you
Bbm       Eb                      Gb
  But at least i finally told my truth
