Tom: C

Am                        E
If a black man is racist, is it okay 
Am                               E
When it's the white man's racism that made him that way 
F                     C
Because the bully's the victim they say 
Dm                    G
By some sense they're all the same 
  
Am
Because the line between 
E
Wrong and right 
F
Is the width of a thread 
C               G
From a spider's web 
Am                 E
The piano keys are black and white 
F                                     C       G
But they sound like a million colours in your mind 
 
Am                    E
I could tell you to go to war 
Am                                   E
Or I could march for peace and fighting no more 
F              C
How do I know which is right 
Dm                                   G
And I hope he does when he sends you to fight 
 
Am
Because the line between  
E
wrong and right 
F
Is the width of a thread  
Dm            G
from a spider's web 
Am                 E
The piano keys are black and white 
F                                     C       G
But they sound like a million colours in your mind 

Am           E
Should we act on a blame
Am                  E
Or should we chase the moments away
F
Should we live
C
Should we give
Dm                          G
Remember forever the guns and the feathers in time
