As Is- Ani Difranco
>From Little Plastic Castle
Capo @ 1st fret

Verse:
A        E             F#m              D
   You cant hide behind social graces
A     E            F#m            D
        So don't try to be all touchy feely
A        E         F#m    D
Cause you lie   in my face of all places
A     E              F#m        D
But I've got no problem with that really
What bugs me is you believe what you're saying
What bothers me is you don't know how you feel
What scares me is while you're telling me stories
You actually believe that they are real

Chorus:
F#m         E D      E                   F#m
   I've got      no illusions about you
F#m                 E D   E       F#m
     Guess what       I never did
F#m                 E D           E          F#m
     When I said,     when I said Ill take it
F#m         E D   E
    I meant,      I meant
     A  E F#m E    A E F#m  E
as is,  as  is ,    as is,    as      is

Just give up and admit you're and asshole
You would be in some good company
And I think you'd find that your friends would forgive you
Or maybe I am just speaking for me
Cause when I look around, I think this just isn't good enough
So I try to laugh at whatever life brings
When I look down, I just miss all the good stuff
When I look up, I just trip over things

I've got no illusions about you
Guess what...I never did
When I said, When I said I'll take it
I meant, I meant as is
