intro                   (repeat)

                                                          
verse1 I don't know what you feel no more when you look in my eyes
                                                      
       I know I'm the same girl who walked out that door, but I'm brand new
               
             inside
                                                                       
       Maybe what I'm sayin' ain't true after all, I take it a minute at a time
                                                            
       Maybe all I want is to hold you right now with no compromise

                                 ()     
chorus This is the real me, breakin' down at last
                                   ()      
       Hey, it's the real me, crawlin' out of my past
                                                            
       Baby, the real me...   wants the real you...   so bad

verse2 The numbness overcomes me now like alcohol and fear
       And I want to crawl inside you, baby, but I don't want you near
       A woman's her own mystery, not a shadow of her man
       But I'm not a queen inside a mirror no more, I'm not a guard to hold
             hand

chorus

                                                ()         
bridge Well, I've got no answers now, and I don't expect them of you
                                                     
       Thank God for second chances, baby, coz there's something I can give to
             
             you

chorus And it's the real me, breakin' down at last
       Hey, it's the real me, crawlin' out of my past
       Baby, the real me...   wants the real you...   so bad
       Baby, the real me...   wants the real you...   so bad

Again, haven't played this one in a long time, so look for mistakes.
