Powerless


D Paint my face in your magazines Dsus2 Make it look whiter than it seems D Paint me over with your dreams Dsus2 Shove away my ethnicity D Burn every notion that I may have a flame inside to fight Dsus2 And say just what is on my mind D Without offending your might Chorus D Em G A D Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you D Em G A D But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do D So say what you want D I saw her face outside today Dsus2 Weatherworn, looking all the rage D They took her passion and her gaze and made a poster Dsus2 Now it's moccasins we sport D We take the culture and contort Dsus2 Perhaps only to distort what we are hiding Chorus D Em G A D Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you D Em G A D But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do D But say what you want Bridge D Dsus2 Dsus4 Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in, get in Hey you, the one that don't fit in, how ya, how ya gonna get in Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in with your Broken teeth, broken jaw, broken mojo Chorus D Em G A D Yeah, this life is too short to live it just for you D Em G A D But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do D Em G A D Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you D Em G A D But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do D Em G A D So say what you want, say what you want, say what you want
