Anybody But Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wish I could be
Anybody but me
I wish I could be
Anybody but me
Lonely, lonely as I can be
Well I had a true love
Had the world in my hands
Now I got a hurt
I can't hardly stand
A little bit of loving would be so grand
I'm not the same old me
That I use to be
I wanna be somebody
Just anybody but me
I got the blues on my mind
Blues won't let me be
<instrumental>
Now I wanna be free
>From what's holding me
Take away these tears
Take away these tears
And let me see
Cause I wanna be back
Like I use to be
I said I wish I could be
Yeah, anybody but me
Yeah, now I wanna be
Just, any old body but me
Because I'm lonely
Lonely as I can be
