INTRO: Am E (4X)
Am E
If I told you he was your brother
Am E
We could reminisce then you would go about your day
Am E
If I said you ought to give him some of your water
Am E
You'd shake your canteen and walk away.
F C G F
The perception that divides you from him is a lie
C G F
For some reason you never asked why
C G F
This is not a black and white world
C G Bb
You can't afford to believe in your side
Am Dm
This is not a black and white world
Am E
To be alive I say the colors must swirl
Am Dm
And I believe that maybe today
C G
We will all get to appreciate
Am E Am E
The beauty of gray
Am E
If I told you she was your mother
Am E
We could analyze the situation and be gone
Am E
If I said you ought to give her some of your water
Am E
Your eyes would light up like the dawn
F C G F
The perception that divides you from her is a lie
C G F
For some reason you never asked why
C G F
This is not a black and white world
C G Bb
You can't afford to believe in your side
