Em                           A
We the people fight for our existence,
     Em                                 A
We don't claim to be perfect but we're free.
     Em                               A
We dream our dreams alone with no resistance,
Em                               A
Fading like the stars we wish to be.

                   D
You know I didn't mean,
                G    D/F#  Em
What I just said,
                                             A
But my god woke up on the wrong side of his bed;
                                     G
And it just don't matter now.

Little by littlE|- you have to give it all with all your life,
             D          C             G                   A
And all the time, I just ask myself why you're really here.

(played over the A chord)
True perfection has to be imperfect,
