Verse
 
C                 G 
I can't stand to fly 
Am             F 
I'm not that naive 
C                G 
I'm just out to find 
Am                 F 
The better part of me 
 
Chorus
 
                    C                   G 
I'm more than a bird...I'm more that a plane 
                     Am         F 
More than some pretty face beside a train 
            C     G  F C 
It's not easy to be me 
 
Verse
 
C                  G 
Wish that I could cry 
Am             F 
Fall upon my knees 
C              G 
Find a way to lie 
           Am            F 
About a home I'll never see 
 
Chorus
 
                   C                 G 
It may sound absurd...but don't be naive 
         Am                  F 
Even heroes have the right to bleed 
                C                     G 
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede 
         Am                  F 
Even heroes have the right to dream 
            C    G  F C G 
It's not easy to be me 
 
Bridge
 
Am         G            F           Am 
Up, up ahead...away from me 
             D           Am                 D 
It's all right...you can all sleep sound tonight 
 
            F          G 
I'm not crazy...or anything... 
 
Verse
 
C                 G 
I can't stand to fly 
Am             F 
I'm not that naive 
C                    G 
Men weren't meant to ride 
Am                       F 
With clouds between their knees 
 
Verse
 
                   C           G 
I'm only a man in a silly red sheet 
         Am                  F 
Digging for kryptonite on this one-way street 
                C           G 
Only a man in a funny red sheet 
         Am                  F 
Looking for special things inside of me 
            C        G   F C G 
It's not easy to be me
