INTRO:AmDmAmE (2X)
AmE
If I told you he was your brother
AmE
We could reminisce then you would go about your day
AmE
If I said you ought to give him some of your water
AmE
You'd shake your canteen and walk away.
FCGF
The perception that divides you from him is a lie
CGF
For some reason you never asked why
CGF
This is not a black and white world
CGBb
You can't afford to believe in your side
AmDm
This is not a black and white world
AmE
To be alive I say the colors must be swirled
AmDm
And I believe that maybe today
CG
We will all get to appreciate
AmDmAmE
The beauty of gray
AmE
If I told you she was your mother
AmE
We could analyze the situation and be gone
AmE
If I said you ought to give her some of your water
AmE
Your eyes would light up like the dawn
FCGF
The perception that divides you from her is a lie
CGF
For some reason you never asked why
CGF
This is not a black and white world
CGBb
You can't afford to believe in your side
AmDm
This is not a black and white world
AmE
To be alive I say the colors must be swirled
AmDm
And I believe that maybe today
CG
We will all get to appreciate
CG
We will all get to appreciate
AmDmCG
The beauty of gray The beauty of gray
AmDmCG
The beauty of gray The beauty of gray
