D G
they'll know us by the t-shirts that we wear
C
they'll know us by the way we point and stare
D7
at anyone whose sin looks worse than ours
C G
who cannot hide the scars of this curse that we all bare
G
they’ll know us by our picket lines and signs
C
they’ll know us by the pride we hide behind
D7
like anyone on earth is living right
C
and isn’t that why Jesus died
G
not to make us think we’re right
Em A D
when love, love, love
Em D C D/B A
is what we should be known for
Em A D
love, love, love
B7 Em Em/F
it’s the how and it’s the why
Em/F Am Am/G D
we live and breathe and we die
G
they’ll know us by reasons we divide
C
and how we can’t seem to unify
D7
because we’ve gotta sing songs a certain style
C
or we’ll walk right down that aisle
G
and just leave ‘em all behind
G
they’ll know us by the billboards that we make
C
just turning God’s words to cheap clichés
D7
says “what part of murder don’t you understand?”
C
but we hate our fellow man
G
and point a finger at his grave
G
they'll know us by the t-shirts that we wear
C
they'll know us by the way we point and stare
D7
telling ‘em their sins are worse than ours
C
thinking we can hide our scars
G
beneath these t-shirts that we wear
