Verse 1
When (G major) I was but a school (C major) boy
I (D major) dreamed I would grow tall (G major)
And man, it made me crabby (C major)
(A minor) That a (D major) crab could be so (G major) small
With this I tell my (C major) teacher
She (D major) say, "But don't you see? (G major)
Each and every (C major) creature
(A minor) Is ex (D major) actly how they should (G major) be"
She (D major) said we all are special
From (B major) jellyfish to king
We (E minor) all do different (A major) things
And with (D major) that she start to sing
You got to be (C major) you
(D major) I got to be (G major) me
(E minor) It's simple but (C major) true
What else could you (D major) do?
Who else could you (G major) be?
You got your own (C major) style
(D major) Now let it come (E minor) through (A major)
And re (C major) member no matter what
(D major) You got to be (G major) you (E minor) (Gaug) (E minor)
(Gaug) (E minor) (Gaug) (E minor)
Skatefish got to skate
Stingrays got to sting
(D major) Catfish got to purr
And Sebastian got to sing (A major)
(E minor) Seahorse got to ride
Flounder got to play
And (D major) whale got to make the trouble
All the (B major) livelong (E major) day (A major) (D major) (E major) (A major) (D major) (B major)
(E major) (A major)
So why should you be gloomy (D major)
That (E major) you're too big or small (A major)
The sea is very (D major) roomy
(B major) And there's (E major) plenty room for us (A major) all
You (E major) heard my little story
Now (C sharp major) let it be your guide
Just (F sharp minor) treat yourself (B major) with pride
You'll be more (E major) than satisfied
You got to be (D major) you
(E major) I got to be me (A major)
(F sharp minor) I'll try to be clear (D major) er
Look in the (E major) mirror
What do you (A major) see?
You see what I (D major) mean
(E major) Now let us re (F sharp minor) view
(B major) Let's see now...
(E major) Some may be tiny
Some got the claws
Gills may be shiny
Sharks got the jaws
Down in the briny
Those are the laws
And that is why we sing
You got to be (D major) you
(E major) I got to be (A major) me
(F sharp minor) It's simple but (D major) true
What else could you (E major) do?
Who else could you (A major) be?
You got your own (D major) style
(E major) Now let it come (F sharp minor) through
And remember no (B major) matter what
You got (D major) to be you
You got your own voice
You've got (D major) to rejoice
You (E major) got to be (A major) (D major) (B major) (E major) you
