Tom: G
G Em Bm D
In our endeavor we are never seeing eye to eye
G Em Bm D
No guts to sever so forever may we wave good-bye
G Em Bm D
And you're always telling me that it's my turn to move
G Em Bm D
When I wonder what could make the needle jump the groove
[PD-C HORUS]
C G/B Am Em D C
I won't fall for the oldest trick in the book
C G/B Am Em D C
So don't sit there and think you're off of the hook
C G/B Am Em D C
By saying there is no use changing
[CHORUS]
Am C G F
'Cause that's just what you are
Am C G
That's just what you are
[VERSE 2]
G Em Bm D
Act steady always read to defend your fears
G Em Bm D
What's the matter with the truth did I offend your ears
G Em Bm D
By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try
G Em Bm D
Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy
[PD-C HORUS 2]
C G/B Am Em D C
It's not like you would lose some critical piece
C G/B Am Em D C
If somehow you moved point A to point B
C G/B Am Em D C
Maintaining there is no point changing
[CHORUS]
Am C G F
'Cause that's just what you are
Am C G
That's just what you are
[BRIDGE]
Em Em7 C A
Now I could talk to you 'til I'm blue in the face
Em Em7 C A
But we still would arrive at the very same place
G G/F# C A C C/B A
With you running around and me out of the race
[G O]
G Em Bm D 4x
[PD-C HORUS 3]
C G/B Am Em D C
So maybe you're right nobody can take
C G/B Am Em D C
Something older than time and hope you could make
C G/B Am Em D C
It better that would be a mistake
C G/B Am Em D C
So take it just so far
[CHORUS-OUTRO]
Am C G F
'Cause that's just what you are
Am C G F
That's just what you are
Am C G F
That's just what you are
Am C G F
Acting steady always ready to defend your fears
Am C G F
(that's just what you are)
Am C G F
What's the matter with the truth did I offend your ears
Am C G F
(that's just what you are)
Am C G F
You're like a sleepwalking man it's a danger to wake you
Am C G F
(that's just what you are)
Am C G F
Even when it is apparent where your actions will take you
Am C G F
(that's just what you are)
Am C G F
And that's just what you are
Am C G F
(that's just what you are)
Am C G F
And that's just what you are
