G         Em           Bm            D
In our endeavor we are never seeing eye to eye
G         Em           Bm            D
No guts to sever so forever may we wave good-bye
G         Em           Bm            D
And you're always telling me that it's my turn to move
G         Em           Bm            D
When I wonder what could make the needle jump the groove


[PD-C HORUS]
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
I won't fall for the oldest trick in the book
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
So don't sit there and think you're off of the hook
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
By saying there is no use changing

[CHORUS]
          Am         C      G F
'Cause that's just what you are
Am         C        G
That's just what you are

[VERSE 2]
G         Em           Bm            D
Act steady always read to defend your fears
G         Em           Bm            D
What's the matter with the truth did I offend your ears
G         Em           Bm            D
By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try
G         Em           Bm            D
Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy

[PD-C HORUS 2]
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
It's not like you would lose some critical piece
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
If somehow you moved point A to point B
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
Maintaining there is no point changing

[CHORUS]
          Am         C      G F
'Cause that's just what you are
Am         C        G
That's just what you are

[BRIDGE]
Em          Em7         C         A
Now I could talk to you 'til I'm blue in the face
Em          Em7         C         A
But we still would arrive at the very same place
G        G/F#       C           A           C  C/B  A
With you running around and me out of the race

[G  O]

[PD-C HORUS 3]
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
So maybe you're right nobody can take
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
Something older than time and hope you could make
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
It better that would be a mistake
C       G/B          Am     Em    D      C
So take it just so far

[CHORUS-OUTRO]
        Am         C        G    F
'Cause that's just what you are

You're like a sleepwalking man it's a danger to wake you
Am         C        G    F
(that's just what you are)
Am         C        G    F
Even when it is apparent where your actions will take you
