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