Capo 5th fret


[Intro]
N.C.
Love's gonna get you killed
But pride’s gonna be the death of you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me
And you and you and you and me and


[Chorus]
G  Emadd9    A            F#m
   It wasn't all to share
    G      Emadd9  A                         F#m
But there, in     another life, I surely was there
G  Emadd9    A   A#dim7
   It wasn't all to share
    Bm       Em6     E     Esus4  C#m6
But there, I care, I care


[Verse 1]
G                            Emadd9  
Hell-raising, wheel-chasing, new worldy possessions
A                              A                   F#m
Flesh-making, spirit-breaking, which one would you lessen?
    G                                 Emadd9
The better part, the human heart, you love ’em or dissect 'em
A                            A                F#m
Happiness or flashiness, how do you serve the question?
G                                     Emadd9  
See, in the perfect world, I would be perfect, world
        A                               A#dim7  
I don't trust people enough beyond they surface, world
        Bm                           Em6
I don't love people enough to put my faith in man
         E                              Esus4         C#m6
I put my faith in these lyrics hoping I make amend, I understand


[Verse 2]
  G                               Emadd9  
I ain't perfect, I probably won't come around
                  A                               A              
This time I might put you down, last time I ain't give a fuck
  F#m            G                           Emadd9
I still feel the same now, my feelings might go numb
                    A                               A            F#m          G   
You're dealing with cold thumb, I’m willing to give up a leg and arm and show empathy from
             Emadd9                          A                              A#dim7
Pity parties and functions and you and yours, a perfect world, you probably live another 24
Bm                           Em6
   I can’t fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure
E                            Esus4             C#m6
   I can’t fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure


[Chorus]
G  Emadd9    A            F#m
   It wasn't all to share
    G      Emadd9  A                         F#m
But there, in     another life, I surely was there
G  Emadd9    A   A#dim7
   It wasn't all to share
    Bm       Em6     E     Esus4  C#m6
But there, I care, I care


[Refrain]
               G     Emadd9  A        
Maybe I wasn’t there
A       F#m    G     Emadd9  A         
Maybe I wasn’t there
A       F#m    G     Emadd9  A        
Maybe I wasn’t there
A#dim7  Bm     Em6
E       Esus4  C#m6


[Verse 3]
    G                              Emadd9  
Now in a perfect world, I probably won't be insensitive
A                            A           F#m
Cold as December but never remember what winter did
G                                 Emadd9  
I wouldn't blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid
A                                     A            F#m
Seems like I point the finger just to make a point nowadays
G                           Emadd9  
Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there
A                            A#dim7
Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here
  Bm                                 Em6
I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back
    E                            Esus4       C#m6
The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost that


[Verse 4]
G                     Emadd9  
Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride
  A                      A             F#m
A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies
G                       Emadd9  
Promises are broken and more resentment come alive
A                    A         F#m
Race barriers make inferior of you and I
     G                               Emadd9  
See, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over riches
            A                            A#dim7
I'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prison
          Bm                            Em6
I'll take all the religions and put 'em all in one service
        E                           Esus4     C#m6
Just to tell 'em we ain't shit, but He's been perfect, world


[Chorus]
G  Emadd9    A            F#m
   It wasn't all to share
    G      Emadd9  A                         F#m
But there, in     another life, I surely was there
G  Emadd9    A   A#dim7
   It wasn't all to share
    Bm       Em6     E     Esus4  C#m6
But there, I care, I care


[Refrain]
               G     Emadd9  A        
Maybe I wasn’t there
A       F#m    G     Emadd9  A         
Maybe I wasn’t there
A       F#m    G     Emadd9  A        
Maybe I wasn’t there
A#dim7  Bm     Em6
E       Esus4  C#m6
