Verse 1: Cone's Basslines and Tom's 2nd Intro Riff at "You keep your head"
Am                        C    G
  I don't expect you to believe
Am
  Cause through those eyes of yours
    C                 G
you see just what you want to see
Am                             C     G
  Pieces of all your shattered dreams
Am
  If you keep your head so low
       C              G
you'll never see what you can be


Chorus:
              Am
(take a look around)
          G
We're the same in all
F             C
different ways
              Am
(take a look around)
          G
We're the same in all
F             E
different ways
               Am
Do you want to really
     G      D/F#          F
fight about differences tonight?
              Am
(take a look around)
          G
We're the same in
    F             C
all different ways
    E
But I I don't expect
you to believe

Am-G-D/F#-F- x2

Verse 2:
Am
  Just when you think
               C  G
you're race is run
Am
  And you're left standing there
     C               G
with all your laces still undone
Am                             C  G
  It's like the end has just begun
Am
  And you feel so alone
    C                   G
but know you're not the only one


(Repeat Chorus)

Verse 3: Almost Same as Vese 1, Slight changes in Chords and Deryck's voice
Am                        C    G E
  I don't expect you to believe
Am
  Cause through those eyes of yours
    C                 G       E
you see just what you want to see
Am                             C     G E
  Pieces of all your shattered dreams
Am
  If you keep your head so low
       C              E(hold)
you'll never see what you can be


(Repeat Chorus)
