Intro:

G D7 (x2)

They [G]isolate their heads,
And [D7]stay in their safety [G]zones.

Bridge 1:

[Bb] Now what can you [F7]tell them?
[Bb] And what can you [F]say,
That won't [Em]make [Dm]them de-[C]fensive?

[G] I know there's an [Em]answer,
[G] I know now but [Em]I have to,
Find it [Am7]by myself.[D7]

Verse 2:

They come [G]on like they're peaceful,
But [D7]inside they're so up-[G]tight.
They [G]trip through their day,
And [D7]waste all their thoughts at [G]night.

The [F]way that they [Em]live [Dm]could be [C]better?
