Blue October - Chameleon Boy: chords

Am
I change my color for you,
I shed my coat with caution,
G
I lack the beauty you display.
Am
See here they are the bruises
And some were self inflicted
G
And some showed up along the way.
Am
So I nod my head I’m ready for the world to see
G
The secret I kept here inside the man you thought
I’d be
Am
Slipped into coma calm
The coma where I calm myself down
G
Here comes excuses
Why I let you down

Chorus:
C
Stand by for another breakdown
G
Sound off the alarm
                C
Is this the chameleon boy I swore
              G
I wouldn’t become?
     Am       G
Chameleon boy
     Am       G
Chameleon boy

So now we've come upon
The hardest thing I've ever done
It's telling you that I'm a mess
What sort of mess, I mean
Is self-destructive gasoline
The kind that strips you of your best
And while I play instead
The way that most would end up dead
You sleep alone at home
And wish that I was in our bed
With this, I'm telling you
My color changes back to blue
How do I ask you this
Will you help me through?

Chorus:
Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become?
Stand by for another breakdown
Sound off the alarm
Is this the chameleon boy I swore I wouldn't become?
Chameleon boy
Chameleon boy

I try to think of all the people I looked up to
Or growing up, who would I be?
Now the twisted part
Where did all my idols end up?
They've all passed away
Passed away

Stand by, it's the chameleon boy
Stand by, it's the chameleon boy
Chameleon boy
I'm the chameleon boy
Chameleon boy
I'm the chameleon boy
