Starkid – A Very Potter Senior Year - Sidekick (Ukulele)

Am                Em
It's not fair, it's not fair

Bm/G            D
I didn't know, I wasn't there

Am                 Em
It's not fair, It's not fair

Bm/G         D
Seeing you lying there

Am
I wasn't strong enough,

C
to save you from the evil stuff

Em
I wasn't smart like you

F               G
To do what you would do

Am
I know I'm not a leading man

C               (Em)
I know I'm not a star

F
but I know what makes me special

G                 Am
is what I feel in my heart

Am             D
I'm just a sidekick

F        (G)        C
but I love being at your side

C                              Bb F
I've been in the shadows for far too long -

C                              Bb F
But I'm the leading man of this song

C                              Bb F
I was a stupid doofus but now that's gone

G
I'm ready for a change, gonna keep calm and carry on!

C                              Bb F
I know I'm not a pretty boy, but I'm a man

C                              Bb F
I'll find a way to save ya baby, yes I can

C                              Bb F
don't confuse the way i was with the way I am

G
I'm ready for a change, gonna take a stand

Am          D
I'm just a sidekick

Am         D
I'm just a sidekick

Am         D
I'm just a sidekick

F        (G)        C
but I love being at your side

F
I'm always forgotten

                        C      (Bb F)
always come in second place

F
I'll never be a front man

                        C      (Bb F)
no one can remember my face

F
If I was in a dinner

F                         C                  (Bb F)
I would surely be the less prominent taste

          F               G
but when I think of how I feel for you

         E           Am
and the love I have inside

  Bb 
I forget about all the things I am not

   G
and my heart swells up with pride

C                     Bb F
Am I the strongest (no I'm not)

C                     Bb F
Am I the smartest (no I'm not)

C                     Bb F
Am I the hottest (no I'm not)

Am I the hero (no I'm not)

Am I the one who steals the show (no I'm not)

C                                   Bb F
Am I the one who you should know (no I'm not)

G
But am I the one who takes you home (definitely not)

C                      Bb F
Am I the chosen one (no I'm not)

C                      Bb F
Am I the prodigal son (no I'm not)

C                      Bb F
Am I almost done (no I'm not)

Eb                                       F
But I'm the one who's gonna love you with - all of his heart because... 

Eb

Eb                                       F
I'm the one who's gonna love you with - all of his heart because... 

G
that's what I've got!

C                           Bb          F
I'm not a great athlete, I'm no good at art

C                           Bb          F
I know my brain is not my most impressive part

C                           Bb          F
My wand can barely work and my car won't start

G
but I know what makes me special's what I feel in my heart

Am         D
I'm just a sidekick

Am         D
I'm just a sidekick

Am         D
I'm just a sidekick

      F              (G)                 C
