Opening: E, B7sus4, D, A
E
I wish you could see me now,
Bsus4
I wish I could show you how,
D A
I'm not who I was.
E
I used to be mad at you.
Bsus4
A little on the hurt-side too,
D A
But I'm not who I was.
F#m7 E/G#
I found my way around,
A
to forgiving you, some-time-ago,
D
But I never got to tell you...
E/A E
So..
B7sus4, D, Amaj7
E
I found us in a photograph,
Bsus4
I saw me and I had to laugh,
D A
Ya' know, I'm not who I was.
E
You were there you were right above me,
Bsus4
And I wonder if you ever loved me.
D A
Just for who I was.
F#m7 E/G#
When the pain came back again;
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/brandon_heath/im_not_who_i_was_crd_ver_4.html ]
like a bitter friend.
A
It was all that I could do,
D
To keep myself from blaming you.
E/D
E
Ooo..
B7sus4, D, E/A
E
I reckon' it's a funny thing,
Bsus4
I figured out I can sing,
D A
Now I'm not who I was
E
I write about love and such,
Bsus4
maybe 'cause, I want it so much,
D A
but, I'm not who I was
F#m7
I was thinkin' maybe I,
E/G#
should let you know,
A
that I am not the same,
D
But I never did forget your name.
E/A E
Hello...
F#m7 E/G#
But the thing that I find most amazing,
in amazing grace,
A
Is the chance to give it out,
D
Maybe that's what love is all about.
E/D
E
I wish you could see me now,
Bsus4
I wish I could show you how,
D A
I'm not who I was.
