A Em7 A generation lost in pace, D/F# G Wasn´t life supposed to be more than this? A Em7 In this kiss I´ll change your bore for my bliss D/F# G Let go of my hand and it will slip out in the sand if you don´t give me the chance A Em7 to break down the walls of attitude, D/F# I ask nothing of you G A not even your gratitude Bridge 1: G And if you think I´m corny A then it will not make me sorry Bm7 D it´s your right to laugh at me G A and in turn, that´s my oppurtunity Dm7 to feel brave G A Because ridicule is no shame Bm7 D it´s just a way to eclipse hate G A it´s just a way to put my back straight Bm7 D it´s just a way to remain sane Vers 2: Em7 D/F# Every morning I would see her getting G off the bus the picture never drops A Em7 it's like a multicoloured snapshot stuck in my brain D/F# G it kept me sane for a couple of years A as it drenched my fears Em7 of becoming like the others D/F# who become unhappy mothers G A and fathers of unhappy kids And why is that? Bridge 1: G A Cause they´ve forgotten how to play Bm7 D maybe they´re afraid to feel ashamed G to seem strange A to seem insane Bm7 to gain weight to seem gay D I tell you this Chorus: G A That it takes a fool to remain sane Bm7 D It takes a fool to remain sane G A It takes a fool to remain sane Bm7 D In this world all covered up in shame G A E Dadd9 x2 (-Oh, take it to the stage!)
