G
So you gave me a home
Am
And you gave me a name
F Em
And you told me, behave like the others
G
Then you sent me to school
Am
Which was all about rules
F
And I learnt to pretend
C
And so I faked my way through school
Am
And now I fake my way to you
Em F G
In every face I look for signs of truth

And when you cry I take your hand

Look in my eyes

Em G
I may look like a man
Am
And talk like a man

I'm in for life, but what's my crime?
Em
I'm searching through my race to find
F G
Some long lost tribe, long lost in time

I killed you once, but let's pretend
F G
That this time round we'll be good friends

So I've been abuser and I've been abused
Am
I've been the Nazi and I've been the Jew

To recover, those who wish to discover

Who I am, Who I am

Who I am, Who I am
