Not That Different
by Karen Taylor-Good and Joie Scott
as recorded by Collin Raye on
"I Think About You" (1995)
Intro: D Bm G A
She [Bm]said we're much too different
We're from [G]two separate worlds
And he ad[A]mitted she was partly [D]right
But in his [Bm]heart's defense he told her
[G]What they had in common
Was [D]strong enough to bond them for [A]life
He said [Em]look behind your own soul
And the [D]person that you'll see
[G]Just might remind you of [A]me
Chorus:
I [D]laugh, I [Bm]love, I [G]hope, I [A]try
I [D]hurt, I [Bm]need, I [G]fear, I [F#]cry
And I [G]know you do the same things, [Em]too
So we're [G]really not that different,[A] me and [D]you
(Bm G A first time)
(Bm G A D last time)
She could hardly argue
With his pure and simple logic
But logic never could convince a heart
She had always dreamed of loving someone more exotic
And he just didn't seem to fit the part
So she searched for greener pastures
But never could forget
What he whispered when she left
(Chorus)
BRIDGE:
Was it [A]time or was it [Bm]truth
Maybe [G]both lead her [A]back to his [D]door
As her [A]tears fell at his [Bm]feet
She didn't [G]say "I love you"
What she [A]said meant even more
(Chorus)
