Verse 1
(C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) When I
was a (C major) kid,
the (F major) second of four,
I remem (A minor) ber my dad
would sometimes call (C major) me by
(F major) my brother's name,
and it bothered (Gsus4) me then.
(C major) I (F major) thought if he loved me more
There's (A minor) no way that he'd (C major) repeat
the same (F major) mistakes
I (C major) swore to him that when I'd finally grown
(F major) I (G major) would never do that sort of thing (A minor)
Now (C major) that I've got three kids of my own, (F major)
I (D major) love them and confuse them
just the (G major) same. (C major) (G major)
What I (C major) thought was true,
what (D minor) I thought was right,
sure (F major) looks a little different
after (G major) all this time.
No, the (A minor) truth won't change,
but perspect (D minor) ive can
So (F major) much for the light (G major) in the sand (A minor)
(C major) So (F major) much for the light (Gsus4) in
the sand (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major)
There was a time when (F major) I was on fire
I had a (A minor) love for a word
I (G major) thought I knew but did
(F major) n't understand
Cause I (C major) used it as a weapon
to judge (F major) from on high
With no (A minor) love or grace
for (G major) any who (C major) were strug (F major) gling
Struggles (C major) of my own I could not (F major) hide
And (G major) I found myself among the least of (A minor) men
So (C major) you might imagine my sur (F major) prise,
As I (D major) came to recognize myself in (G major) them.
What I (C major) thought was true,
What I (D minor) thought was right,
Sure (F major) looks a little different,
After (G major) all this time.
No, the (A minor) truth won't change,
but perspect (D minor) ive can
So (F major) much for the (G major) line in the sand (A minor)
(C major) So (F major) much for the (Gsus4) line (G major) in
the sand (F major) (C major) (F major) (C major)
Nobody (G major) knows what He
(F major) wrote on the ground
Between the (G major) men with the stones,
and (C major) the one left to die
(G major) But (E minor) there in the sand,
in (F major) front of that crowd
Was a (G major) sweep of a hand,
erasing a line (C major) (G major) (D minor) (F major)
(C major) (Gsus4)
So (G major) give a name to (C major) your fear,
put (F major) a face to the name
Take (A minor) a look at the tears in the eye
of that (C major) face and (F major) feel the pain
Take (G major) a walk in his shoes
(C major) and feel (F major) something change
But no, (A minor) it's not the truth (C major) (F major)
No, (A minor) it's not the truth (C major) (F major) (C major) (F major) (Gsus4)
