[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse 1]
D
White collar, blue collar, hillbilly, high dollar
G
Hot head, pot head, non-believer, holy water
D
Big city, small town, y'all take a look around
G
People are different
D
Heavy metal, hip hop, steel toe, flip flops
G
Sip it slow, cold beer, hits you fast, whiskey shot
D
Accent North, South, good as gold, sailor mouth
G
People are different
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D
Yeah, we all know it's true
G
But it don't mean that me and you
[Chorus]
D
Can't walk down a street and smile at a stranger
G
Heart on your sleeve and love thy neighbor
D
No matter what shape, no matter what color
G
Break bread instead of fighting each other
D
Slip on a pair of another man's shoes
G
You'll see by the time you get back
D
This old world would be a whole lot better place
G
If we'd all just embrace the fact
D
That people are different
G
People are different
[Verse 2]
D
Left wing, right wing, jail house, freedom ring
G
Old school, new school, everything in-between
D
Like a snowflake, no fingerprint's the same
G
And people are different
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D
I wish that it was something that we all understood
G
Lord knows it'd do us all some good
[Chorus]
D
To walk down a street and smile at a stranger
G
Heart on your sleeve and love thy neighbor
D
No matter what shape, no matter what color
G
Break bread instead of fighting each other
D
Slip on a pair of another man's shoes
G
You'll see by the time you get back
D
This old world would be a whole lot better place
G
If we'd all just embrace the fact
D
That people are different
G
Yeah, people are different
[Bridge]
Bm A
You can turn on the TV
G D
Change the channel if you don't like what you see
Bm A
You can get your money back if it ain't your size
G D
You can throw it in the trash if you don't like it
G
But listen, people are different
[Chorus]
D
So walk down the street and smile at a stranger
G
Heart on your sleeve and love thy neighbor
D
No matter what shape, no matter what color
G
Break bread instead of fighting each other
D
Slip on a pair of another man's shoes
G
You'll see by the time you get back
Bm A
This old world would be a whole lot better place
G
If we'd all just embrace the fact
D
That people are different
G
People are different
D
People are different
G
Whoa, yeah
