Am F (4x)

Verse 1:
Am               F
 When I see your face in the crowd

 With a look of obsession
Am          F
 There's no subtle way to say
Am                       F
 There's plenty of defense and discretion

                    Dm
Even with what's left

All the gifts put outside

It's like nothing really matters

Am             F
 How can other people's ways

 Be an estimate of your way of life?
Am                               F
 Can't the words, and birds, and trees, and Earth
Am                         F
 Be the same thing, and be just as right?

It's hard,

It's so hard,

a learned test

 If he could see the different way
Am           F                                Dm
