[Verse] ^same as intro (play twice)
(Riff)
Rosalyn’s new here
(Riff)
Just moved down
(Riff)
Her friends all warn her about that part of town
(Riff)
But she feels safe in
(Riff)
The city streets
(Riff)
The darkness makes her feel at peace


[Pre-Chorus]
         G                    D           A
But when she walks two blocks over to the suburbs
      G                  D                   A      G   A
She’s scared, cause everything’s a different color, color


[Chorus]
    D    G           D       A
Oh, Rosalyn, outside looking in
D               G                 D     A
All you hear is how we’ve come so far
    D    G               D          A
Oh, Rosalyn, how come we judge your skin
    G            A               D
And never give a damn about your heart


[Verse 2] (play tab 3 times)
(Riff)
Rosalyn’s armor
(Riff)
Is the clothes she wears
(Riff)
They protect her from our stares
(Riff)
Brand new jacket
(Riff)
Expensive purse
(Riff)
When she wears em
(Riff)
Nothing hurts


[Pre-Chorus]
G                    D               A
Our clean streets only make her feel filthy
    G                 D               A       G    A
And she doesn’t know why she feels so guilty, guilty


[Chorus]
    D    G           D       A
Oh, Rosalyn, outside looking in
D               G                 D     A
All you hear is how we’ve come so far
    D    G               D          A
Oh, Rosalyn, how come we judge your skin
    G            A               G
And never give a damn about your heart


[Bridge]
                       D
But its all about your heart
G        A
Ohhhhh   Ohhhh
                G
We’re trying so hard
                D
We're trying so hard
G
Rosalyn, don’t give up
A
Don’t give up on us

[Pre-Chorus]
G               D          A
We all know its so easy to fake it
     G           D              A         G   A
When all we care about is being blameless


[Chorus]
    D    G           D       A
Oh, Rosalyn, outside looking in
D             G            D     A
We don't even know who you are
    D    G               D          A
Oh, Rosalyn, how come we judge your skin
    G            A               D
And never give a damn about your heart
