Fmaj7                           G
I don’t wanna be your personal Jesus

I don’t wanna live inside of that flame
Fmaj7                      G
In a way I wanna be my own believer

Am                                C
I don’t wanna be a part of that shame
Fmaj7                        G
In a way I wanna be my own redeemer
Am                              C
I don’t wanna play your video game

I don’t care if it’s a popular refrain
