[Verse 1]
B
I see you there, dangling a star
B
I know who I am, you know who you are
E B
Laid out these books as stepping stones
B
Standing upright you're the smallest of all
B
You make me tall, You make me tall
E E E E E E
Don't you dare think you're alone
[Instrumental Break]
B (same as intro)
[Chorus]
B
Put your hands in mine and push as hard as you can
B
Wasn't born a man, Wasn't born a man,
E B
they'd sell our hearts if we stop fighting for free
B
Gave me a book of paper stickers, I need something thicker
B
to cut with my scissors, cut with my scissors
E B
I wanna tire out my hands and give them something to see
E B
Hey look I raised my hand first, why didn't you call on me?
[Bridge]
E
Standing right there I can see through your chest,
B
you know what's best, I'll write the rest
E
Didn't you see we've been laying that tile?
B F# F# F# F# F#
So don't make me smile, don't make me smile
[Chorus]
B
But if you offer up your hands I'll push as hard as I can,
B
Wasn't born a man Wasn't born a man,
E B
they'll sell our hearts if we stop fighting for free
B
Gave me a book of paper stickers I need something thicker
B
to cut with my scissors, cut with my scissors,
E B
wanna tire out my hands and give them something to see
E B
Hey, look I raised my hand first, why didn't you call on me?
[Guitar Solo] - (Same chords, B and A)
[Bridge]
E
Turn off your phones, Please no photographs
B
Why did you just laugh? No reason to laugh
E
I've tried out my best, I've written this scene
B F# F# F# F# F#
Let me show you what I mean, let me show you what I mean
[Outro Chorus Part 1] - (Bass Riff)
B
Cause if you offer up your hands I'll push as hard as I can
B
Wasn't born a man, wasn't born a man
E B
They'll sell our hearts if we stop fighting for free
N.G
[WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!]
[Outro Chorus Part 2] - (Rock Out)
B
Gave me a book of paper stickers, I need something thicker
B
to cut with my scissors, cut with my scissors
E B
I wanna tire out my hands and give them something to see
E B
Hey look I raised my hand first, Why didn't you call on me?
