(riff 1)
A# squirrel in the tree is he watching me
Does he give a damn?
Does he care who I am?
I'm just a man, is that all I am
Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human?
I'm human
Murderous crow, hey what you know
What you reading about, what you hold in your toes
Is that a twig, are you a dove of peace
A# black dove undercover, with another puzzle piece
Are you a riddle to solve all along?
Or am I over thinking thoughts of human after all
Only human
Made of flesh, made of sand, made of you and me
F#G#
The planet's talking about a revolution
FmA#m
The natural laws ain't got no constitution
D#m
They've got a right to live their own life
A#
But we keep paving over paradise
(riff 1)
'Cause we're only human
F#m
Yes we are
G#m
only human
BA#
If it's our only excuse do you think we'll keep on being
(riff 1)
Only human
F#m
Yes we are, yes we are
G#m
Only human, only human, only human
BA#
So far...
(riff 1)
Up in the major's tree, the one he planted back when he was just a boy
Thinking 1923
Thirty meters and a foot, take a look, take a climb
What you'll find is the product of a seed
The seed is sown, all alone
It grows above, with a heart of love
Sharp and shelter of the animals of land and cold weather breathing
We're all breathing in
F#G#
The planet's talking about a revolution
FmA#m
The natural laws ain't got no constitution
D#m
They've got a right to live their own life
A#

(riff 1)
Only human, only human, only human
BA#
So far...
BA#
And this place it will outlive me
C#G#
Before I get to heaven I'll climb that tree
GF#
And I will have to give my thanks
GB
For giving me the branch to swing on
A#AG#
If I ever fall in love
GF#
I'll have to give myself a baby
GA
I will let my children have their way
