*Verse*
        G#
It's a new day, but it all feels old
        F#
It's a good life, that's what I'm told
     F#
But everything, it all just feels the same

       G#
At my high school, it felt more to me
        F#
Like a jail cell, a penitentiary
    F#
My time spent there, it only made me see


*Pre-chorus 1*
     F#
That I don't ever wanna be like you
C#
I don't wanna do the things you do
    F#
I'm never gonna hear the words you say
    G#
and I don't ever wanna, I don't ever wanna be

*Chorus*
G#
You___    ...don't wanna be just like you

A
  Oh what I'm sayin' is
G#
This is the anthem, throw all your hands up,
C#   G#   F#                 C# <-(When you land on this chord you
you___    ... don't wanna be you|      play the second intro)


*Second intro*


*Verse2*
       G#
Go to college, a university
       F#
Get a real job, That's what they said to me
    F#
But I could never live the way they want

           G#
I'm gonna get by, and just do my time,
        F#
Out of step while, they all get in line
     F#
I'm just a minor threat so pay no mind

*Pre-chorus 2*
F#
Do you really wanna be like them,
       C#
do you really wanna be another trend?
F#
Do you wanna be part of that crowd?
       G#
'cause I don't ever wanna, I don't ever wanna be

*Chorus* (Only one small difference)
You...don't wanna be just like you
Oh what I'm sayin' is this is the anthem throw all your hands up,
                    Bbm <--(Instead of landing on C#,
you, don't wanna be you     you land on Bbm, for the bridge)


*Bridge*
(G#
   Shake it once, that's fine
G#
   Shake it twice, that's okay
G#
   Shake it three times, you're playing with yourself, again.


*Solo*

   What I'm sayin' is this is the anthem throw all your hands up,
G#
Y'all got to feel me, sing if you're with me,


G#
you___    ...don't wanna be just like you (just like you)
G#
This is the anthem throw all your hands up,
G#
y'all got to feel me, sing if you're with me

G#
never lose your anthem   (whoa-oh)
never lose your anthem   (whoa-oh)
never lose your anthem   (whoa-oh)
never lose your anthem
