[Intro] D x 4 [Verse]
D                        C
Why? In a world of ugly faces

C      Em/B                   D
Should I be allowed to be so hot.

D                       C
So many people without talent,

C         Em/B                               D    
Yet I was born with all the magical gifts, I got.
[Chorus]
    Em/B              C 
The perfect body, the perfect face,

          D                Bm 
It's like Gods best work all in one place.

        C              Bm                  A
But the haters hate perfection, can't you see?

       C/G          Em
It's a burden being wonderful like me.
[Verse]
D                          C
How in a world that's so imperfect,

C    Em/B                   D
Did I wind up with so much cool?

D                                C
Friends never stick around too long,

C     Em/B               D
Never feel like they belong

D                             C
Next to me they feel like a fool.
[Chorus]
          Em/B               C 
I got the grace of a dancer, golden voice, 

D                             Bm 
People seem to hate me like I had a choice

C                       Bm              A
Being this blessed is a lonely way to be,

       C/G          Em
It's a burden being wonderful like me.. Like me.
[Bridge]
D/A                         D/G 
So you say you wanna hang around

           D/A                     D/G
Don't ever ask me to turn it down

      D/A                      D/G
I'm a diamond, I'm gonna shine

            D/A 
Compared to everyone else 

           D/G
I'm like a whole damn diamond mine
[Solo] Bm | A | Bm | A | Bm | A | C | C [Chorus]
           Em/B          C 
I'm just a Maserati in a world of Kias

 D                              Bm 
Genius wouldn't describe any of my ideas

     Em/B         C     D                       Bm 
If I was born i 1453 Leonardo Da Vinci would be jealous of me

      C                  Bm                   A
But a world of Stevie Wonders would never see

       C/G          Bm    C        D
It's a burden being wonderful like me.
