G In our Em endeavor we are Bm never seeing D eye to eye
No guts to serve us so forever may we wave goodbye
And you're always telling me that it's my turn to move
When I wonder what could make the needle jump the groove
C I won't G fall for the Am oldest Em trick in the book
So don't sit there and think you're off of the hook
By saying there is no use changing 'cause
C That's just D(Am what you are G F
That's just what you are
G Acting Em steady always Bm ready to D defend your fears
What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try
Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy
C It's not G like you would Am lose some Em critical piece
If somehow you moved point A to point B
Maintaining there is no point changing 'cause
C That's just D(Am what you are G F
That's just what you are
Em Now I could G talk to you C till I'm D(Am blue in the face
But we still would arrive at the very same place
G With you G/F# running Em around and me D out of the C race C/B Am
(KEYBOARD SOLO OVER VERSE CHORDS)
C So G maybe you're Am right, Em nobody can take
Something older than time and hope you could make
It better, that would be a mistake
<
So take it just so far
'Cause C that's just D(Am what you G are F
That's just what you are
That's just what you are
G Acting F steady always C ready to D(Am defend your fears
<
What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears
<
You're like a sleepwalking man, it's a danger to wake you
<
Even when it is apparent where your actions will take you
<
G That's just F what you C are D(Am
And that's just what you are
That's just what you are
That's just what you are
