Intro Am Dm F Am F A Am E E C
Verse 1
Am Dm
If you had looked
F Am
You might've just seen them
F A Am E E C
Strut in the background
C Am
You'd see the oceans
C Am F C
Swell and the mountains shook
Am F A E E C
You'd see a million colors if you really looked
F G C F
Now, quick, the night draws near
F G F C
Her curtain spreads clear
F G Am F E A
The safety's off, but the gun has no trigger
If you had looked, you'd be no one's coward
Distance, justice, power
You'd glimpse the password
You wouldn't need the book
You'd own both slave and master if you just had looked
But now the banks all close
And nothing gets bigger
The crowd will yell, but the gun has no trigger
If you had looked, you might reconsider
Or, just maybe, you already have
They want you sleeping
You watch their garbage cook
You'd weep a bowl of tears if you had looked
But now the gate comes down
The pangs are growing dimmer
You hold a gun to your head, but the gun has no trigger
