Intro: (F  Gm, Bb, F)  

   
               F 
No matter what they say  
        Gm 
I gotta bend the rules  
       C                         F 
just a little...to know that I'm being true  
F                                  Gm 
Cause I see the world as more than green and blue  
        C                     Bb   
I don't give up on what I aim to do  


Chorus (x2):  
F 
I, I keep right to the beat  
Gm 
I, I keep right to the beat 
Bb                            F 
I dance to the beat of my own drum  


        F 
I gotta let you know  
      Gm 
how I feel inside  
       C                      F 
just a little piece of what's on my mind  
F                       Gm 
Oh, I've been down this road before  
           C 
and it was me who broke my fall  
        Bb  
cause I made it on my own  


Chorus (x2) 

Bb                                F 
Forget about the things that only make you cry  
Bb                                 F 
Forget about the ones who won't op-en their eyes 
   C                          Bb                    C        C        C          
to see that there is nothing, nothing like feelin', feelin', feelin', feelin', feelin' free. 


Chorus (x3) (Variations on chord strum pattern single strums etc.)
