D                 Bm
I was sure I was right,
                            G
I was king for a day every night
        D
I was wrong...
I was wrong
D                   Bm
And I knew where to go every step was
               G
a step up the road
      D
I was on...
I was on
      A              G          D                G
As I reach for the sky it was clear I couldn’t fly
      A            Em   F#m G
Cause I’m not that animal

Chorus:
G       D            A            Em F#m G
All the animals are running after me
G             D                 Em  F#m  G A
It’s all that I can do to stand on two feet
G       D             A              Em F#m   G
All the animals were running to the sea
       G                  D
And I give it away every night every day
       A                     D
Every word that I say I’m an animal...

So I land on a stage
And I find that I'm slipping away
Let it roll, let it roll
And the heart plays a game
Trying to fool the reptilian brain
In control, in control
Where I fly or I fight
Wanna look into your eyes
There's nothing but animal there

Chorus

             Em                  A
So let your walls come crashing down
          Em                 A
Let your dress fall to the ground
        Em                     G
Let me see your smile let the call of the wild
         Bm                        A
Be your words for a while be your song for a while

Chorus

I’m an animal
