I Am Not That Lyrics & Tabs by Michael Nesmith

I Am Not That

guitar chords lyrics

Michael Nesmith

I am not a poet
I cannot make a rhyme
I do not know the big words

Like "shpritz" and "paradigm"
I am not an artist
I cannot paint my house
I cannot chisel marble
I cannot twist and shout
I am not a Yankee
I have no nation-state
No cosmic star connections
I cannot get a date
I am not a crook
I am not a thief
To be, for me, is not to be

I am not a crook
I am not a thief
To be, for me, is not to be
Not to see, to see
Goodbye, goodbye, the "I am" world
Goodbye, goodbye, so long
Farewell, adieu, adieu, farewell
I have not sung this song
No, I have not sung this song
I am not the Walrus
I am not the Boss
I am not the King or Queen
I am not Jack Frost
I am not the singer
I am not twenty-two
I am not was, were
Be, am, is, or you
Goodbye, goodbye, the "I am" world
Goodbye, goodbye, so long
Farewell, adieu, adieu, farewell
I have not sung this song
I have not sung this song
Goodbye, goodbye, the "I am" world
Goodbye, goodbye, so long
Farewell, adieu, adieu, farewell
I have not sung this song
No, I have not sung this song
I have not sung this
