[Verse]
E C#m
Is it something visceral?
G#m
The way with your pride the basic ways to define ourselves
E C#m G#m
It's tragical, you take it so hard that we just don't look the part
E C#m
But I believe that we can change it
G#m
This incessant hopping of the stereotypes
E
I think your downright lying
C#m G#m
if you claim to know people you've never met
[Pre-Chorus]
E
I know its b-b-b-b-basic
C#m G#m
But somehow, somepeople haven't n-n-n-nailed it
E
That we are individuals with individual tastes
C#m G#m
It doesn't matter what color or r-r-r-r-race you are
Where ya from?
E
I know its b-b-b-b-basic
C#m G#m
But somehow, somepeople haven't n-n-n-nailed it
E
That we are individuals with individual tastes
C#m G#m
It doesn't matter what color or r-r-r-r-race you are
Where ya from?
[Chorus]
Repeat lick from intro

Screwing up the point of view
G# B C# C# F# D#
Stealing from your largest fears

Standing up to certain sheilds
[Verse]
E C#m
Maybe we're just sensitive
G#m
We go run in circles and we make ourselves nauseous
E C#m G#m
Contrafactual, you meant nothing by it
We must deal with satire
E C#m
But then what if its just plain wrong
G#m
This incessant pointing to your dress always
E
You choose to cut your hair
C#m G#m
What if we wanted just a bit more slack?
[Pre-Chorus]
E
I know its b-b-b-b-basic
C#m G#m
But somehow, somepeople haven't n-n-n-nailed it
E
That we are individuals with individual tastes
C#m G#m
It doesn't matter what color or r-r-r-r-race you are
Where ya from?
[Chorus]

G# B C# C# B D#
Hey Standing up to certain sheilds, Hey
