Kunci Gitar Kimya Dawson - Same Shitcomplicated

intro – Am , G , Am , G , Am

Am
you were looking down at them , they were looking down at you .
G Am
you were starched and press , they were all disheveled .

they were holding hands , they were ragamuffins and
G Am
they said “i know we’re not fancy , but we’re on the same level .
G
we’ve got plans , big plans we’re gonna change the world .
Am
all you care about is dollars , that doesn’t make sense .
G
all you do is hit snooze , watch the news , buy shoes , drink booze , make
money , feel spent .

Am
day after day after day , it’s the same shit .
G
day after day after day , it’s the same shit .
Am
day after day after day , it’s the same shit .
G Am
day after day after day after day after day . ”

then you look at them without batting an eye and say
G Am
“hey little hippie , let your freak flag fly .

why don’t you go smoke a bowl in your best tie dye ,
G Am
get a tattoo of a dancing bear holding a peace sign .

you can talk the talk but when it comes to real change ,
G
aren’t you and all your little friends exactly the same?
Am
you sit around at potlucks pointing fingers , placing blame ,
G
drinking kombucha , and eating tempeh .

Am
day after day after day , it’s the same shit .
G
day after day after day , it’s the same shit .
Am
day after day after day , it’s the same shit .
G Am
day after day after day after day after day . ”

if you are judging them while they are judging you ,
G Am
and you think that makes them assholes , maybe you’re an asshole too .

do we argue with each other ’til we both turn blue ,
G Am
or find similarities in what we like and what we do?

yeah , just because someone does not look like me
G
doesn’t mean that they are a clone or a sheep .
Am
maybe they like their job and they’re living their dream ,
G Am
and they love their friends and their family .

some people thrive between nine and five ,
G
and feel like they’re choking if their neck’s not tied .
Am
and some people feel as if they’re gonna die
G Am
if their seams aren’t straight and their shoes aren’t tied .

some people like business , some people like numbers ,
G
some people grow organic heirloom cucumbers ,
Am
and only feel free with their hands in the dirt
G
in a pair of old jeans and their favorite t – shirt
Am
some people feel enslaved when they have a boss ,
G
some people without one feel totally lost .
Am
to make this world work it takes all different kinds .
G
we have all different tastes , different strengths , different minds ,
Am
so it doesn’t make sense to generalize
G
and it doesn’t make sense to judge with our eyes .
Am
we need more compassion , we need to be kind
G
if you open your heart you might like what you find .
Am
’cause there are some mean bus drivers , but there’s some nice bus drivers
G
and there are some nice cops in madison , wisconsin .
Am
and there’s some nice teachers , and there’s some mean teachers ,
G
just because you have a mean teacher doesn’t mean all teachers suck .
Am
and no one is nice all the time , no one is mean all the time
G
think about what someone’s going through that’s making them be mean to you
Am
maybe their pet gerbil died and they are really sad inside ,
G
or maybe they got in a fight with someone that they really like ,
Am
maybe they are really shy and don’t know to socialize
G
they just want to run and hide , not saying that it’s justified
Am
but if we learn to empathize the resentments will vaporize
G
situations metamorphize before out very eyes .
Am G
then the need to stereotype will become outdated when we realize everyone

is really complicated .
Am
we are all so complicated , we are all so complicated
G
i Am also complicated , i Am also complicated

Am
i’m a black mama lactivist , a home – owning punk .
G

Am
i don’t understand what numbers have to do with success
G
or what sales have to do with  happiness ,
Am
unless they’re the kind of sails that will carry me to sea ,
G
where my grandma and grandpa are waiting for me .
Am G
