[Verse]
C# A#m
Is it something visceral?
Fm
The way with your pride the basic ways to define ourselves
C# A#m Fm
It's tragical, you take it so hard that we just don't look the part
C# A#m
But I believe that we can change it
Fm
This incessant hopping of the stereotypes
C#
I think your downright lying
A#m Fm
if you claim to know people you've never met
[Pre-Chorus]
C#
I know its b-b-b-b-basic
A#m Fm
But somehow, somepeople haven't n-n-n-nailed it
C#
That we are individuals with individual tastes
A#m Fm
It doesn't matter what color or r-r-r-r-race you are
Where ya from?
C#
I know its b-b-b-b-basic
A#m Fm
But somehow, somepeople haven't n-n-n-nailed it
C#
That we are individuals with individual tastes
A#m Fm
It doesn't matter what color or r-r-r-r-race you are
Where ya from?
[Chorus]
Repeat lick from intro
F G# A# A# G# C
Screwing up the point of view
F G# A# A# D# C
Stealing from your largest fears
F G# A# A# G# C
Standing up to certain sheilds
[Verse]
C# A#m
Maybe we're just sensitive
Fm
We go run in circles and we make ourselves nauseous
C# A#m Fm
Contrafactual, you meant nothing by it
We must deal with satire
C# A#m
But then what if its just plain wrong
Fm
This incessant pointing to your dress always
C#
You choose to cut your hair
A#m Fm
What if we wanted just a bit more slack?
[Pre-Chorus]
C#
I know its b-b-b-b-basic
A#m Fm
But somehow, somepeople haven't n-n-n-nailed it
C#
That we are individuals with individual tastes
A#m Fm
It doesn't matter what color or r-r-r-r-race you are
Where ya from?
[Chorus]

F G# A# A# G# C
Hey Standing up to certain sheilds, Hey
