The Beauty of Gray

	  		  
INTRO: Am    Dm    Am    E (2X)  
  
 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 be swirled  
         Am                 Dm  
 And I believe that maybe today  
         C                G  
 We will all get to appreciate  
                Am      Dm       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  
  
         Am                     Dm  
 This is not a black and white world  
         Am                        E  
 To be alive I say the colors must be swirled  
         Am                Dm  
 And I believe that maybe today  
          C               G  
 We will all get to appreciate  
          C               G  
 We will all get to appreciate  
  
                 Am    Dm                  C    G         
 The beauty of gray        The beauty of gray  
                 Am    Dm                  C    G         
 The beauty of gray        The beauty of gray  
  
          (Am)
