[G] [E]
[Em] I'm a shy boy, you're a cold boy, and you [G] know we're [D] homo [Em] sapien too
Cruiser, you're the loser, me and [G] you's a [D]
homo [E] sapien too
[Em]
Homospheria in my interior, right from the skin [G] of the eye
[D] Homo [E] sapien too, and you're [G] a [D]
homo [E] sapien too
[G] [D]
Homo [E] sapien like you, and [G] we're [D]
homo [E] sapien too
And [A] the [E] world's filled with [A] anger and spade when we act [E] on our lives
[A] And the words [E] in the script [D] seem to fit, [A] except we have [E] some surprise
I [A] just want [E] this to last, [A] for my future is past [E] our arms
[A] And if this [E] is the case, [A] then I'm losing love straight [E] from the heart
I'm [Em] a shy boy, you're a cold boy, and you [G] know we're [D] homo [E] sapien too
[Em] Cruiser, you're the loser, me and [G] you's a [D]
homo [E] sapien too
Homospheria in my interior, right from the [G] skin of the eye
[D] Homo [E] sapien too, [G] and you're a [D] homo [E] sapien too
[G] And I'm [A] homo [E] sapien like you, and [G] we're [A] homo [E] sapien too
[A] [E] [D] [A]
Love [E] is a hand, you [A] and I, [E] me and you, we [D] will be one [A] from two [E] on the stem
And [Am] the [E] world is so wrong that [A] I hope this will be strong [E] enough
For we are all wrong, and [A] the only thing known is [E] our love
I [A] don't [E] wanna classify you [D] like an [A] animal [E] in the zoo
But [A] it seems good [E] to me to [A] know that you're a homo sapien [E] too
I [Em]
[E] don't wanna classify you [Em] like an animal in the zoo
But it seems good to me to know that [E] you're a homo sapien [Em] too
[E]
I don't wanna classify you [Em] like an animal in the zoo
But it [E] seems good to me to know that you're a [Em] homo sapien too
I [E] don't wanna classify you [Em] like an animal in the zoo
