[Verse 1]
Am
I still remember
C
Just like it was yesterday
F
The moment the gavel
D
Brought the fires and the rage
Am
Now it stands to reason
C
That in time we'd see a change
F
But the more things keep on shifting round
D
The more they stay the same
[Pre Chorus 1]
C G
Please don't tell me that it's over
D A
It breaks my heart I fear we'll never make amends
C G
Where is the love within these borders?
D
When will this end?
[Chorus]
C Am F G
Why can't we all just get along?
F C Am F A
Why can't we all just get along?
[Verse 2]
Am
Now father said son
C
You'd better keep this truth in mind
F
If we come back together
D
We might all get out alive
Am
But the war that is raging
C
Between the hearts of men
F
For ideas not worth saving
D
That might break us in the end
[Pre Chorus 2]
C G
With empty words we keep on fighting
D A
We're only getting weaker cause we're too headstrong
C G D
When there is no real way of deciding who's right or wrong
[Chorus]
C Am F G
Why can't we all just get along?
F C Am F G
Why can't we all just get along?
[Bridge]
E
You're either ignorant or blind
E
(There I said it)
(There I said it)
E
I thought we left this shit behind
E
(There I said it)
(There I said it)
E
Don't tell me I don't belong
Don’t insist you're right I'm wrong
E
The answer in the end was never black or white
[Interlude]
