A#m G# | F# F#

 

A#m G# F# C#

Elio-o-o-o-o

A#m G# F# F#

Elio-o-o-o-o

A#m G# F# C#

Elio-o-o-o-o

A#m G# F# F#

[Verse]:Bbm G#

My art isn't mine

C# G# D#

Cause i know that you’re tuning in

A#m G#

All the things id like to sing

C# G# D#

You tell me are a sin

A#m G#

Water myself down for you

C# G# D#

Filter my own thoughts

A#m G#

Lace the page in metaphor

C# G# A#m D# F#

Let you think i'm not who i am

D# F#

Who i am

 

[Bridge]: A#m F F# C#

But im sick of fairytales and cryptids

A#m F F# C#

Carefully vague, ambiguous

A#m F F# C#

Just once ill say just how it is

A#m F F# F#

Each day i remind myself this...

 

[Chorus]:Db

I am my soul

Im not my body or name

But elio

D# A#m

Would be my choice if i could change

A#m D# F#

I'd still be the same all except my name

F#m C# D#

My name would resonate

F# F#m C#

My name my name my name

A#m G# F# C#

Elio-o-o-o-o

A#m G# F# F#

Elio-o-o-o-o

 

[Verse]: A#m G#

Spiderman and peter pan

C# G# A#m

I wish i felt like me

A#m G#

Take the pen and write again

C# G# A#m

А cryptid running free

A#m G#

Give it time another rhyme

C# G# A#m

And maybe then i’ll see

A#m G#

Nothing’s wrong with me at all

C# G# A#m

The box doesn't fit me

C# G# A#m

I'd love to be as free

D# F#

As a boy

D# F#

As a boy

A#m F F# C#

And I'm sick of fairytales and cryptids

A#m F F# C#

All to just conceal a secret

A#m F F# C#

Really made me feel like this is

A#m F F# F#

Somehow about you, it isn't

(it isn’t!)

I am my soul

I'm not my body or name

But elio

D# A#m

Would be my choice if I could change

A#m D#

I'd still be the same

D# F#

All except my name

F#m C# D#

My name would resonate

F# F#m C#

My name my name my name
