One Tongue
Intro: G, C(2x)
GWhat in the world caused this distance?
CAnd what in the world hurt our hearts?
GAnd what are we to do about it?
CAnd what are we to start?
GWe have an answer and it is language
CIt might be silence it might be words
GIt includes some understanding
CAnd it includes the will to learn
To be Gtalking, talking, talking Cone tongue
GTalking, talking Cone tongue
GAnd give us the strength to look straight at you
CLet doubt be the furthest from our minds
GSo we can continue to be and know that we should be here
CAnd we can see the light inside
GAnd as it gets more complicated, Csimplicity must arise
GSo we can follow in this feeling
CAnd we can keep this song alive
To be Gtalking, talking, talking Cone tongue
GTalking, talking, talking Cone tongue
GYes there are many many questions
CYes there is red tape on the ground
GYes the simple truth can cut through anything
CJust touch base and make this sound
I said Gyes there are too many questions
CYes there is red tape on the ground
GYes the simple truth can cut through anything
CJust touch base and make this sound
GTalking, talking, talking Cone tongue

One Tongue

G C

Intro: , (2x)

What in the world caused this distance?

And what in the world hurt our hearts?

And what are we to do about it?

And what are we to start?

We have an answer and it is language

It might be silence it might be words

It includes some understanding

And it includes the will to learn

G C

To be talking, talking, talking one tongue

G C

Talking, talking one tongue

And give us the strength to look straight at you

Let doubt be the furthest from our minds

So we can continue to be and know that we should be here

And we can see the light inside

G C

And as it gets more complicated, simplicity must arise

So we can follow in this feeling

And we can keep this song alive

G C

To be talking, talking, talking one tongue

G C

Talking, talking, talking one tongue

Yes there are many many questions

Yes there is red tape on the ground

Yes the simple truth can cut through anything

Just touch base and make this sound

I said yes there are too many questions

Yes there is red tape on the ground

Yes the simple truth can cut through anything

Just touch base and make this sound

G C

Talking, talking, talking one tongue
