That's just what you are(Chords)

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