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

Screwing up the point of view
C# E F# F# B G#
Hey Stealing from your largest fears
C# E F# F# E G#
Hey Standing up to certain sheilds, Hey
