Em G A C D

[Verse 1]
Em
But now I'm in town, break it down

Thinking of making a new sound
G
Playing a different show every night

In front of a new crowd
A
That's you now, ciao

Seems that life is great now
C                  D
See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud
Em                   G
I can't, no, I won't hush
                                 A
I'll say the words that make you blush
                    C   D
I'm gonna sing this now,  ow ow
Em
See, I'm true, my songs are where my heart is
G
I'm like glue, I stick to other artists
A
I'm not you, now that would be disastrous
C
Let me sing and do my thing
D
And move to greener pastures
Em
See, I'm real, I do it all, it's all me
G
I'm not fake, don't ever call me lazy
A
I won't stay put

Give me the chance to be free
C
Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me

[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
         D
You need me

[Verse 2]
Em
I sing and write my own tune

and I write my own verse
      G
Hell, don't need another wordsmith

to make the tune sell?
A
Call yourself a singer-writer

You're just bluffing
C
Your name's on the credits
         D
And you didn't write nothing
Em
I sing fast

I know that all my shit's cool
G
I will blast

And I didn't go to Brit School
A
I came fast with the way I act, right
C                       D
I can't last, if I'm smoking on a crack pipe
Em
I won't be a product of my genre
G
My mind will always be stronger than my songs are
A
Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya
C                                  D
Always read the stories that you hear in Wikipedia
Em
And musically I'm demonstrating
G
When I perform live, feels like I am meditating
A
Times at The Enterprise when some fella filmed me
C                            N.C.
Young singer-writer like I'm Gabriella Cilmi

[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
         D
You need me

[Verse 3]
                              Em
Cause with the lyrics I'll be aiming it right
                               G
I won't stop till my name's in lights

At stadium heights with Damien Rice
       A
On red carpets, now I'm on Arabian Nights
            C                                D
Because I'm young and all my brother's gonna give me advice
     Em
Long nighter, short height and I gone hyper
G
Never be anything but a singer-songwriter
A
The game's over but now I'm on a new level
C                       D
Watch how I step on the track without a loop pedal
Em
People think that I'm bound to blow up
G
I've done around about a thousand shows
      A
But I haven't got a house plus I live on the couch
   C                              D
So you can be the lyrics when I'm singing them out, Wow
Em
From day one, I've been prepared
     G
With V05 wax for my ginger hair
           A                                           C
So now I'm back to the sofa, giving a dose of what the future holds
            D
'Cause it's another day
                  Em 
Plus I'll keep my last name forever keep the genre pretty basic
         G
Gonna be breaking into other peoples tunes when I chase it
    A
And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift
     C                     D
Into another rappers shoes using new laces
Em
Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the papers
G
Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the majors
      A
Nationwide tour with just jack, still had to get the bus back
C                       D
Clean cut kid without a razor for the mustache
  Em
I hit back when the pen hurts me
    G
I'm still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee
    A
I'm still the same as a year ago

But more people hear me though
C                            D
According to the MySpace and YouTube videos
    Em
I'm always doing shows if I'm not I'm in the studio
G
Truly broke, never growing up call me Ruffio
A
Melody music maker

Reading all the papers
C                                   D
They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator.

[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you
                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you
                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all
         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you
