Birthright Acordes

No Capo
 
    G             Am
She was raised by wolves,
       Em              C
In the warmth of their fur.
   G          Am
Surrounded by fangs,
         Em           C
She knew that she was secure.
 
   G          Am
Language barriers
        Em            C
Made no difference at all.
            G        Am
When you're truly cared for,
        Em             C
There's no purpose for walls.
 
     G           Am
His fences stood tall
         Em         C
As the shoulders of old.
       G              Am
But he dreamt that one day
      Em             C
Maybe he'd break the mold.
 
         G            Am
But time shyly stands still
         Em         C
When you watch it unfold.
           G      Am
From these ivory towers
     Em           C
Freedom is only a ghost.
 
G        Bm
Right or wrong,
        B7
Tension makes us stronger
   C         Em
By making us weak
C                 D
When we needed to be.
 
      G       Bm
Privilege and pain
          B7
When compared look the same.
      C          Em
Comprehension begins
C                      D
When we pull back the lens.
 
     G              Am
They made her their queen
       Em          C
On the day she was born.
            G         Am
They placed on her a crown
           Em      C
She wasn't ready for.
 
          G        Am
But all impossible odds
    Em         C
Foreshadow our means,
     G        Am
Like paving a road
        Em              C
To kingdoms we've never seen.
 
   G           Am
He woke up one day,
        Em         C
Written out of the will.
           G         Am
They swore he'd be okay,
            Em       C
With lesser shoes to fill.
 
      G            Am
"What doesn't kill us
         Em               C
Makes us stronger, " they say.
    G         Am
Our only birthright in this life
       Em             C
Is the breath that we take.
 
G        Bm
Right or wrong,
        B7
Tension makes us stronger
   C         Em
By making us weak
C                 D
When we needed to be.
 
      G       Bm
Privilege and pain
         B7
When compared look the same.
      C          Em
Comprehension begins
        C              Em
When we pull back the lens.
 
    D                G
Our fables tell our truths.
