Em
[Verse 1]
Em G C Am7
It's so hard to understand just where you're coming from
Em G C Am7
To try to see things from a different point of view
Em G C Am7
Trying not to pigeonhole or simply write you off
Em G C C
But it's so much simpler if the parody is true
Am7 G F
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
[Chorus]
G Em
But I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
C G
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
G Em
And I believe together we can build a better bridge
C G
That spans the breadth of stars connecting me to you
[Verse 2]
Em G C Am7
Sick of towing party lines across the great divide
Em G C Am7
Sick of human hearts reduced to red or blue
Em G C Am7
Still often times my thoughts of you are cardboard cutout lies
Em G C C
It's so much simpler if the parody is true
Am7 G F
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
Am7 G F
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
[Chorus]
G Em
But I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
C G
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
G Em
And I believe together we can build a better bridge
C G
That spans the breadth of stars connecting me to you
[Bridge]
F Am7
Why's it so hard to just remember
F Am7
That you have a past, a face, a heart, a name?
F Am7
Oh, it's so hard to just remember, yeah
F Em G C
That we are less different than we are the same
Em G C
But I have to try
[Chorus]
G Em
But I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
C G
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
G Em
And I believe together we can build a better bridge
C Am7 G
That spans the breadth of stars connecting me to you (2x)
