Perspective

G Am D Dsus4 D G Am D Dsus4 D Am G Actions speak louder than words D Or so is the claim Am G So why is it words, when they're loud D Can cause so m uch pain? Am C Silence is golden, they say D And helps keep the peace Am C But silence to protect from pain D Hurts more when released G It’s rarely so simple Am D As yes or no, or black or white G Am You both can be wrong at the same time D As both being right G Am Perspective’s the key to finding D The true common ground G Am Without seeing perspective, the walls D Will never come down Am The wrong act for good reasons G D Seemed a good idea at the time Am G But time has a habit of painting D Good intentions as crime Am C The damage is done, what’s been said D Can’t be taken back Am Long after the wounds are healed C D You still can’t forget the attack G It’s rarely so simple Am D As yes or no, or black or white G Am You both can be wrong at the same time D As both being right G Perspective’s the reason Am D For blinkered view, hope being shut down G Forgetting the happiness, Am D Watching our dreams run aground – single chords, not strummed G Perspective is all that’s left Am D7 After the words have run out G
