Born Bob Dylan Susan Justice
[C]If I don?t say a[D]nything it?[Em]s wrong
[C]if I said it, it [D]wouldn?t come out[Em] right
[C]It?s been keepin[D]g me up all[Em] night
[C]Half my life I?ve[D] been told to[Em] shut up
[C]so how am [D]I gonna ope[Em]n up
[C]wish you could j[D]ust read my [Em]mind
Pre-chorus:
[C]If I shared all of [D]me would you ru[Em]n away
[C]if I sugar coate[D]d what I ha[Em]d to say
[C]in poetry would [D]it make you[Em] stay
Chorus:
[C]I wish I was b[D]orn Bob Dylan[Em]
[C]Had all the word[D]s to speak my f[Em]eelings
I wish I[C] stood up like Ro[D]sa Parks
and fol[Em]lowed my heart
unafrai[C]d of the truth
even if[D] I stood alone
[C]I didn?t know ho[D]w it was go[Em]nna go
even if[C] the water was c[D]old I?d tak[Em]e a deep breath
[C]and get it off my [D]chest
and hope fo[Em]r the best
Verse 2:
[C]They say ei[D]ther way yo[Em]u win
[C]if it?s mutual why [D]hold it in[Em]
[C]and it?s not mea[D]nt to be[Em]
[C]and you tell the t[D]ruth it will set[Em] you free
[C]but all their wisd[D]om doesn?t help[Em] me now
[C]I?m scared and I[D] gotta find[Em] out
how t[C]o speak my mind
[D]without metaphors and prose an[Em]d rhymes
and still ma[C]ke you mine
Pre chorus 2:
[C]I hope you know what[D] I mean w[Em]hen I?m acting mean
cuz I don?t say w[C]hat I mean when I?m [D]caught in-between
[Em]and I?m afraid
[C]the real yo[D]u is elud[Em]ing me
Bridge:
[C]And hope you will c[D]atch
me whe[Em]n I fall
[C]and love me ba[D]ck
when I sho[Em]w you my all
Fill i[C]n the blanks
if I?m not mak[D]ing sense
be [Em]patient with me
Chorus:
[D]I wish[Am] I was [C]born Bob [G]Dylan
[D]Had all the [Em]words to spea[C]k my feel[G]ings
[D]I wish I st[Em]ood up like [C]Rosa Park[G]s
and followed my heart
[D]unafrai[Em]d of the [C]truth
[D]even if[Em] I stood [C]alone
[D]I didn?t k[Em]now how it was[C] gonna go
[D]even if the wa[Em]ter was cold I?d take a deep b[C]reath
and [D]get it off [Em]my chest
and hope fo[C]r the best
E[D]ven if I stood[Em] alone
didn?t kn[C]ow how it was gonna go
go[D]tta get it off my[Em] chest
and hope fo[C]r the best
i[D]f I don?t say anything it?s wron[Em]g if I said it it wouldn?t come o[C]ut right
