This Is My Jam

VERSE 1:

Bb
I like to eat toast with jam
Eb
You like to eat eggs and ham

And if you’re in, we can be friends
         F
'cause I don’t have a problem with ham

Bb
I like to wear sweaters and skirts too
Eb
I like to do just what I want to

And if you don’t like what I do with my life
             F
Well, that’s great, 'cause I didn’t ask you


CHORUS:

Bb
This is my jam
           Eb
This is my jam
           F
This is my toast
           Eb
This is my knife
               Bb
And this is my jam

Bb
This is my jam
           Eb
This is my jam
           F
This is my song
           Eb
This is my life
           Bb
This is my jam


VERSE 2:

Bb
I’m gonna do this, and if you don’t wanna do this,
          Eb
I’m gonna find somebody who wants to do this

Because I am a person and you are a person
           F
You should want what you want as long as nobody’s hurtin’

Bb
You’re not gonna tell me the songs I should write
           Eb
And you’re not gonna tell me my clothes are too tight

'cause I’m gonna love doing all my own stuff
         F
And that love’s gotta come from inside


(Repeat CHORUS)


BRIDGE:
Bb                    Eb                           F
I’d like to be eating breakfast with people that I like
            Eb             Bb
With no one telling me the things they think I should do with my life

Bb                           Eb                       F
And like John Green tells us to imagine others complexly
        Eb                Bb
I won’t judge you, 'cause what you like has nothing to do with me


(CHORUS and BRIDGE, sung in counterpoint)
