Lyrics

For (B5)those who don’t know me, I can get a bit cra zy, have to get my way, yep, twen ty four ho urs a (D)day ’cause I’m (A)hot like that.

(B5)Ev ’ry guy ev ’ry where just gives me mad at ten tion like I’m un der in spec tion.

I al ways get a (D)“ten” ’cause I’m (A)built like that.

I go through guys like mon ey fly in’ out the (F#sus)hands.

They try to change me but they re a lize they (Bm)can’t.

And ev ’ry to mor row is a day I nev er plan.

If you’re (Em9)gon na be my man, un der (F#sus)stand: I can’t be tamed, I can’t be tamed, I can’t be blamed.

I can’t, can’t, (D)I can’t, (A)can’t be tamed, I can’t be changed, I can’t be tamed.

I can’t be, I can’t be If (B5)there is a ques tion a bout my in ten tions, I’ll tell ya I’m not here to sell ya or tell you to go to (D)hell.

(I’m not a (A)brat like that.) (B5)I’m like a puz zle but all of my piec es are jag ged.

If you can un der stand this, we can make some (D)mag ic.

I’m (A)wrong like that.

I can’t be Well, (Bm)I’m not a trick you play, I’m wired a dif f’rent way.

I’m not a mis take, I’m not a fake.

It’s set in my D N A.

Don’t (G)change

me,

don’t (Bm)change

me.

Don’t (G)change

me,

don’t (Em9)change

(F#sus)me.

I can’t be tamed.

I wan na fly, I wan na drive, I wan na go.

I wan na be a part of some thin’ I don’t (Bm)know.

And if you try to hold me back, I might ex plode.

(Em9)Ba by, by now you should (F#sus)know: I can’t be tamed, I can’t be tamed, I can’t be blamed.

I can’t, can’t, (D)I can’t, (A)can’t be tamed.

I can’t be changed, I can’t be tamed.

I can’t be, I (A)can’t be tamed.
