Lyrics

[Intro]
Abmaj7
      Let us begin
Ebmaj7
Once  upon a time,
                          Abmaj7
Darkie was camping in the forest
                       Ebmaj7
Have probably having a really nice dream
And, um,
Abmaj7                        Ebmaj7
      the sun started to rise and   he woke up to the sight
                                      Abmaj7
of a beam of light coming through his tent
And uh,
   Ebmaj7
he couldn't wait to see what was outside

[Chorus]
Abmaj7             Ebmaj7             Abmaj7
I     wish you saw me    like you see you
        Ebmaj7
See you,      oh, oh, oh
Abmaj7             Ebmaj7             Abmaj7
I     wish you saw me    like you see you,  see me,
       Ebmaj7
see you
And this is what he thought about

[Verse]
Abmaj7               Ebmaj7           Abmaj7
I     wish you could see   that I'm a person,
   Ebmaj7
too
Abmaj7               Ebmaj7          Abmaj7
I     wish you could see   that I am hurting,
   Ebmaj7
too
         Abmaj7                   Ebmaj7
On the attack, the ignorant see me      and they see food
                  Abmaj7                      Ebmaj7
But I'll see them yack, if it's truly the last      thing
that I do
                   Abmaj7                       Ebmaj7
And they want that back, the power to place someone under
rule
                  Abmaj7
But all of that's crap, mm,
              Ebmaj7
all of that's crap  to mе
                  Abmaj7
And all of that's crap  
                     Ebmaj7
I can't see your face      through all the shit you're
        Abmaj7
talkin' to    mе
                      Ebmaj7
Let's sit down and mix      perspectives up and sip that
Abmaj7
smoothie
                        Ebmaj7
Hate will bring you down      or bring you up if you move
Abmaj7
smoothly
                Ebmaj7
I may get around      and act a clown but you can't
Abmaj7
fool  me

[Chorus]
Ebmaj7             Abmaj7                Ebmaj7
I     wish you saw me    like you see you
        Abmaj7
Oh, oh, oh    
Ebmaj7             Abmaj7                 Ebmaj7
I     wish you saw me    like you see you,      see me,
       Abmaj7
see you

[Bridge]
Ebmaj7               Abmaj7
      I wish you saw me    
Ebmaj7               Abmaj7
      I wish you saw me    at all
Ebmaj7                Abmaj7
      Saw us both the same  
Ebmaj7                      Abmaj7
      I wish you saw me the same
