Chameleon Boy Uke tab by Blue October

Am
I change my color for you,
Am
I shed my coat with caution, 
G
I lack the beauty you display.
Am
See here they are the bruises
Am
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
Am
The coma where I calm myself down
G
Here comes excuses
G
Why I let you down


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


Am
So now we've come upon the hardest thing I've ever done,
G
It's telling you that I'm a mess.

Am
What sort of mess I mean this self destructing gasoline, 
G
The kind that strips you of your best.
Am
And while I play instead the way that most would end up dead,
G
 You sleep alone at home and wished that I were in our bed.
Am
With this I'm telling you my color changes back to blue,
G
How do I ask you this, will you help me through?


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


Am
I tried to think of all the people I looked up to 
G
While growing up who would I be
Am
Now the twisted part where did all my idols end up
G
They've all passed away
Am                       G
Passed away
