Intro: E - B - A - E (x2)

Verse
E             B           A      E
I've lived my life like a masochist
E           B    
Hearing my father say,
A              E
"Told you so, told you so"
E             B           A     E
Why can't you be like the other girls?
         A  E    B         E
I said, "Oh no, that's not me
A            E               B
And I don't think that it'll ever be."
E          B           A        E
Thought I belong to a different tribe
E         B           A          E
Walking alone, never satisfied, satisfied.
E             B          A     E
Trying to fit in but it wasn't me
         A  E   B       E
I said, "Oh no, I want more
A          E          B (let ring)
That's not what I'm looking for."

Chorus:
     E         B          A       E
So I took the road less traveled by
      E       B      A     E
And I barely made it out alive,
             E        B      A     E
Through the darkness somehow I survived.
A     E    B           E
Tough love, I knew it from the start
A    E            B  (let ring)
Deep down in the depth
             (Repeat intro)
Of my rebel heart

Verse 2:
E                B         A     E
I've spent some time as a narcissist
E           B     
Hearing the others say
A              A
"Look at you, look at you."
E         B       A     E
Trying to be so provocative
         A   E      B      E
I said, "Oh yeah, that was me."
A         E                  B 
All the things I did just to be seen.
E            B              A      E
Outgrown my past and I've shed my skin,
E           B            A            E
Letting it go and I'll start again, start again.
E           B            A        E
Never look back, it's a waste of time
         A   E     B      E
I said, "Oh yeah, this is me
         A          E      B     E
And I'm right here where I wanna be."
        (Silence)
I said, "Hell yeah, this is me,
                    B    
Right where I'm supposed to be."

Chorus:
     E         B          A       E
So I took the road less traveled by
      E       B      A     E
And I barely made it out alive,
             E        B      A     E
Through the darkness somehow I survived.
A     E    B           E
Tough love, I knew it from the start
A    E            B  
Deep down in my rebel heart.
     E         B          A       E
So I took the road less traveled by
      E       B      A     E
And I barely made it out alive,
             E        B      A     E
Through the darkness somehow I survived.
A     E    B           E
Tough love, I knew it from the start
A    E            B  (let ring)
Deep down in the depth...
             (Repeat intro)
Of my rebel heart
            E
In my rebel heart
