do you feel like an outsider // D F#m G A
always left out of the loop
and do you feel like an outlier
always the last to get the scoop
well it's okay so long as you can say // G A
i'm out of the loop because i follow the truth // D F#m G A D

so remember why when we think of insiders
our first instinct is to think of liars
cause speaking truth is only for the outsiders
and that is why i'm stronger as an outlier

i'm an outsider // G A Bm
proud to be standing higher // G A D
it's a lonely feeling making me a crier
but it's also what makes me wiser

if you feel like an outsider
always mocked and preyed upon
and if you're starting to get tired
know your trials will only make you strong
and it's okay so long as you can say // G A
i'm preyed upon because i follow the truth // D F#m G A D

so if people hate you 'cause you won't conform
don't be down just be proud you're above the norm
cause if you want to go higher and higher
you must learn to feel fine being an outlier

i'm an outsider // G A Bm
proud to be standing higher // G A D
it's a lonely feeling making me a crier
but it's also what makes me wiser
