Is cooked brown rice supposed to be chewy?

I don’t have a lot of experience cooking with brown rice, I usually make white rice. I followed the directions on the package to the letter but when I tasted it, it was chewy, not soft at all. I used 2 cups of water and 1 cup of rice and cooked until the water was gone. I was just wondering if this is how brown rice is supposed to be, all chewy? I thought maybe it will taste better the next day heated in the microwave so I will see.
