🎸 Verse 1:
E MajorE             A minorAm
You know I couldn't hurt a fly, my friend.
D MajorD              G+G
I'm not the type to step on ants.
BB                 E minorEm
I've nearly cried for moths that die at porchlight lamps.
C majorC       D MajorD          G+G
More for the plights of mice than men.
E MajorE     E7E7          A minorAm
See
I myself have been stepped on so many times
D MajorD               G+G
It's started to feel like my place.
BB                 E minorEm
I've failed to fit in into those nests that scrape the sky
A7A7              D7D7
Is there room for me in your cage?

🎸 Chorus 1:
G minorGm              A7A7       DmDm
Animals are people too, but these people are animals
D MajorD                   G+G         E7E7
Hunt in packs and act as though that proves we can't survive alone
    A minorAm      D MajorD          G+G       E minorEm
And I guess we just evolved disgust for prevention of infection though
F#7F#7                D MajorD
Shame was an invention made for prisons, pales, and pest control
 D7D7
Yeah, sure, thumbs are great and all–
    C majorC        D MajorD     G+G          E minorEm
But I just get bear necessities, hakuna matatas and c'est le vie's
A minorAm
Que sera sera's, what a crock. I mean
D MajorD
Big talk for a chimpanzee.
   C majorC         C minorCm           G+G       E7E7
You might seem behind bars, but friend, this cage is inside out.
   C majorC       D7D7   G+G  F#7F#7  A minorAm C minorCm G+G
It's awful out here
Socrates.


🎸 Verse 1:
E MajorE              A minorAm
I've never understood what humans do and want
        D MajorD             G+G
It's quite confusing to me to try to connect.
BB                  E minorEm
Never learned how I should feel, instincts somehow stunted
      C majorC       D MajorD        G+G
Just seem haunted by my stupid urge to protect.
E MajorE     E7E7        A minorAm
Until frustration makes me wish my teeth were sharp as yours
    D MajorD                  G+G
Chew through their garage doors, these carnivores will no more use my heart
BB                E minorEm
They'll call me crazy but their words all seem made-up to me
A7A7                     D7D7
Maybe they just need more friendship like yours.

🎸 Chorus 2:
      G minorGm                  A7A7        DmDm
So gather 'round Pandora's Skinner's Box, look through the one-way mirror
  D MajorD                 G+G        E7E7
If you can see in shades of gray the colors are much clearer
     A minorAm          D MajorD         G+G        E minorEm
Oh, my friend, you've got a friend in me. Let's go and make more enemies.
  F#7F#7                 D MajorD
Although my eyes face forward, climb up on my shoulder, sure you'll see
  D7D7
my point of view. I'd bring you with me
   C majorC       D MajorD        G+G         E minorEm
to my office in my pocket, but the world would put us down.
 C majorC       D MajorD    G+G B7B7
Lock me up and toss the key
   C majorC         C minorCm           G+G       E7E7
You might seem behind bars, but friend, this cage is inside out
C majorC         D7D7      E minorEm EmMaj7Emmaj7 E minor 7Em7 Em6Em6
It's dangerous out here
Socrates.
C majorC         D7D7    G+G  F#7F#7  A minorAm C minorCm G+G
It's lonely out here
Socrates.
