 C
I don't mind where you come from
 Em
As long as you come to me
 Am                            F
 I don't like illusions I can't see them clearly
 
 C
 I don't care no I wouldn't dare
 Em
 To fix the twist in you
 Am                             F
 You've shown me eventually what you'll do

All The Same

Intro: G  D/F#


Verse 1:
G            D/F#   G  D/F#
Maybe I'm a dreamer
G            D/F#       G  D/F#
Maybe I'm misunderstood
G                D/F#   
Maybe you're not seeing 
     G              D/F#  
The side of me you should
G          D/F#  G  D/F#
Maybe I'm crazy
G             D/F#     G  D/F#
Maybe I'm the only one
G              D/F#          
Maybe I'm just out of touch
G               D/F#    G  D/F#
Maybe I've just had enough


Chorus:
                    C
Maybe it's time to change
                G
Leave it all behind
                        F
I've never been one to walk alone
                           D
I've always been scared to try
                        C
So why does it feel so wrong 
                        G
To reach for something more
                   F
To want to live a better life
                  D
What am I waiting for
                       F
Cuz nothing stays the same
                     G
Maybe it's time to change


G  D/F#  G   D/F#


Verse 2: 
G           D/F#    G  D/F#
Maybe it's hopeless
G              D/F#         G  D/F#
Maybe I should just give up
G                D/F#
What if I can't trust myself
G              D/F#        G  D/F#
What if I just need some help

[Verse 1]

           Em              C
I walk the line of the disappointed
     Em                 C
I celebrate when I'm in pain
             Em             C
My heart and mind can be disjointed
          G           F      E
I built a bed in this hole I made
       Em             C
I recognize that I am damaged
       Em                 C
I sympathize that you are too
            Em                              C
But I wanna breathe without feelin' so self-conscious
         G                     F          E
But it's hard when the world's starin' at you

[Chorus]

G
  Another piece of the puzzle, it doesn't fit
F
  You throw your arms up, you're so damn sick of it
Em
  What are you working for
C
  What are you searching for
G
  Love
                           G
You won't be thinking of causes
                             F
You're on your death bed and dying
                        Em
You'll only be thinkin' of what you are paying for,
C
  What you are praying for
G
  Love

[Verse 2]

             Em                    C
You join the line of the getting richer
              Em                   C
You keep your face but it's movin' slow
          Em                         C
You are defined by all that you have hoarded
           G                    F           E
But you're surprised it doesn't fill up the hole.

[Verse 2]

G
  Another piece of the puzzle, it doesn't fit
F
  You throw your arms up, you're so damn sick of it
Em
  What are you coping for
C
  What are you hoping for
G
  Love
                         G
You won't be thinking of causes
                             F
You're on your death bed and dying
                        Em
You'll only be thinkin' of what you are paying for,
C
  What you were praying for
G
  Love

[Bridge]

Em
I'll never be what I see on the tv screen
C                                              G
  I just keep dreaming of what I'm never gonna be
                   F             Em                 F
I can't think of a better way to waste my time then try

[Chorus]

G
  Another piece of the puzzle, it doesn't fit
F
  I'm getting tired, I'm so damn sick of it
Em
  What are you hurting for
C
  What are you searching for
G
  Love love love love
                         G
You won't be thinkin' of causes
                             F
You're on your death bed and dying
                        Em
You'll only be thinkin' of what you are paying for,
C
  What you were praying for
G
  Love love love love
                         G
You won't be thinking of causes
                             F
You're on your death bed and dying
                        Em
You'll only be thinking of what are you workin' for,
C
  What are you waiting for?

What Are You Looking For

&quot;Odd One&quot; is the second single from Sick Puppies' third album Tri-Polar, which impacted rock radio on November 10, 2009. According to the band's Twitter, the video was filmed on November 25th. According to pictures posted on the band's Twitter and a video clip on YouTube in the following days, the video was filmed at a skate park. In a live web interview on February 9, 2010, Shim stated that Odd One narrowly beat out Riptide as Tri-Polar's second single, much to the delight of the band who supported Odd One becoming a single because of its strong lyrical message.

&quot;All the Same&quot; is the first single released from Sick Puppies' 2007 album, though it was first released on their self-titled EP a year before the release of the album, Dressed Up as Life. It reached #8 on the U.S. Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart and featured in the Free Hugs Campaign. The radio edit cuts off the middle of the second verse and end of the third verse, whereas there are no vocals in the third verse.

According to the Maybe Songfacts, this song about having the courage to make a change in one's life reminds the Sick Puppies of when they made the change as a band to come over to the States from Sydney, Australia and start from scratch.

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio

I don't, I sing-a-long

But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice

G              D
We don't even know why, no no

Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus

And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

Son, I missed my chance

Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase

Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say

Come Together

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
