  			F#                             D#m 
Go out and hear a band at some club downtown 
B                                F# 
Walk home in the rain and let it soak me down 
F#                             D#m 
Smile and shuffle past all the faces at the door 
B                        F# 
I hardly know how to be myself anymore 
F# 
I wonder where you are 
     D#m 
Do I exist for you 
B                       
If that pain that never quits 
     F# 
Ever gets you too 
F#                                  D#m 
I think about my life and what it's headed for 
B                       F#        
I hardly know how to be myself anymore 
B             C#        D#m 
I know how to chase the night away 
B                        F# 
Show no feelings by the light of the day 
B             C#      D#m 
I know how to keep it all intact 
B                             C#  
Tears may fall but there's no holding back 
F#                     D#m 
Time runs by me like a river cold 
B                         F# 
It sends a shiver way down in my soul 
                          D#m 
I see my past just like a mask I wore 
B                       F#           
I hardly know how to be myself anymore 
 
SOLO 
 
B             C#       D#m 
I know how to face the night alone 
B                           F# 
And keep my distance on the telephone 
B                 C#       D#m       B          
I know how to get my crying done and tears may fall 
            C# 
But I don't show no one 
F#                               D#m 
I go out and hear a band at some club on down the street 
B                            F# 
I shake the hands of all the people that I meet 
F#                                 D#m  
I hope they find just what they're looking for 
B                        F# 
I hardly know how to be myself anymore 
B                        F# 
I hardly know how to be myself anymore 
B                        F# 
I hardly know how to be myself
