C D4 Bm C
I wonder when this poison seed made a root and grew a weed
C D4 Bm C
I wonder when I taught my feet not to walk down certain streets
C D4 Bm C
I want to feel what I believe: that we are all the same
C D4 Bm C
It's not our houses, it's our hearts 1000 miles apart
C D4 Bm C (2x) C (4x)
Uhhhhh.....
C D4 Bm C
You stay there, and I'll stay here, into our corners we disappear
C D4 Bm C
And we don't ever have to talk, 'cause you like hiphop and I like rock
C D4 Bm C
But sometimes thoughts hurt just as bad as striking cheeks with hands
C D4 Bm C
It's less our homes and more our hearts 1000 miles apart
C D4 Bm C (2x)
Uhhhhh.....
C D4 Bm C
When will we have eyes to see?
C D4 Bm C
When will we learn?
C D4 Bm C
Will we ever have eyes to see
C D4 Bm C
That from our colours we learn?
C D4 Bm C
C D4 Bm C
A change of heart, a change of tune, can we forgive each other's wounds?
C D4 Bm C
Can we cut down this fence of weeds, and neighbors, close as brothers, be?
C D4 Bm C
Cannot love conquer even when we don't look the same?
C D4 Bm C
'Cause we don't have to keep our hearts 1000 miles apart
Bm C
A 1000 miles apart .... (2x)
C D4 Bm C (2x) C
Uhhhhh.....
