Native Tongue Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]How can the[D]y say that it’s one way
When it’s the op[A]posite?
And how can they [G]know the
end of [D]the story
Before [A]I tell it?

[Verse 2]
‘Cause when I [D]walk your feet, they fall
To the [A]same beat
Or maybe [G]we’re from two
different [D]worlds
But we've got our own [A]language

[Verse 3]
[G]We talk to people but
they never understand
[A]They think we’re crazy
‘Cause it sounds like noise
When [G]we’re speaking

[Verse 4]
in
our [D]native
[A]Speaking in our native
tongue
[G]We’re speaking in our native
[D]Spe[A]aking in our native tongue

[Verse 5]
We used to [D]live like we were strangers
[A]We didn’t know any better we [G]didn’t fit
In with the [D]out crowd so we [A]gave in
And we shut our mouths

[Verse 6]
But oh, I [D]love your history
And I can [A]take it
And when you [G]talk in code to [D]me
I can [A]translate it

[Verse 7]
[G]We talk to people but
they never understand
[A]They think we’re crazy
‘Cause it sounds like noise to them
[G]Ain't it strange all the things you hear
When you [Em]sit and[F#m] liste[G]n?[A]
[D]When we’re speak

[Verse 8]
[G]ing
in our [D]native
[A]Speaking in our native tongue
[G]We’re speaking in our [D]native
[A]Speaking in our native tongue

[Verse 9]
And [G]all this time I've been
wasting my breath
Just wast[A]ing my words
on everyone else
Now [G]speaking in my [D]native
[A]Speaking in my native tongue

[Verse 10]
[D]So[Bm][G][D][A][Bm][A][D]
[G]com[A]e o[G]n tal[D]k it out[A]
So [G]come on [D]talk [A]it out
So come [G]on and talk, talk, talk, talk, talk
Talk [A]it out (Your voice, it brought me
Back from the dead, somehow)
So come [G]on and talk, talk, talk, talk, talk
[D]Talk [A]it out

[Verse 11]
Out! [A]Out! Out!

[Verse 12]
[G]Speaking in our native
[D]Spe[A]aking in our native
tongue
[G]We’re speaking in our native
[D]Spe[A]aking in our native tongue

[Verse 13]
And [G]all this time I've been
wasting my breath
Just [A]wasting my words on [D]everyone else
[G]I'm speaking in my nat[D]ive
[A]Speaking in my native tongue
[G]
