Mishmash @ BOTMA - The Way I Am - Merle Haggard Cover - Lyrics & Chords Included!!

Here's a clip from a show that Mishmash did at BOTMA in Little Silver, New Jersey.


Lyrics & Chords:
D) Wish I was down on some blue [C] ba[G]you,
With a bamboo [D] cane stuck in the [A] sand.
But the road I'm [D] on, don't seem to [C] go [G] there,
So I just [D] dream, keep on [A] bein' the way I [D] am.

Wish I enjoyed what makes my living,
Did what I do with a willin' hand.
Some would run, ah, but that ain't like me.
So I just dream and keep on bein' the way I am.

Chorus:
The way I [G] am, don't fit my [D] shackles.
The way I [A] am, reali[D]ty.
D) I can almost see that bobber [C] dan[G]cin',
So I just [D] dream, keep on [A] bein' the way I [D] am.

2nd Verse repeat

Chorus Repeat 2x

I just dream, keep on bein' the way I am.

@zazamaxi

The camera that took the picture belongs to our bass player [that's why he's not in the pic.]

I have no clue what model it is.

The one that took the video is my Mother's, a Hannukah gift from 2 years ago. It is a panasonic, though I can't remember the model.
