[Chorus]
Am      C        Dm    Em   
Call it what you want, eh eh eh 
             C        C - G - F
Call it what you want,        eh eh eh
             Am      C        Dm    Em
I said, just call it what you want, eh eh eh
                 C      C - G - F  
Call it what you want 


[Verse 1]
           Am            Dm       
Yeah, we're locked up in ideas 
                      Em
We like to label everything
                                   Am 
Well I'm just gonna do here what I gotta do here
                      G    Dm 
'Cause I gotta keep myself free
                   Am
You're ducking and moving just to hide
     Dm                       Em
Your bruises from all your enemies 
                                F
And I'm in the crossfire dodging bullets
                  Dm
From your expectancies, yeah yeah 


[Pre-chorus]
Am     Dm                       Em  
(Uh uh-uh, we've got nothing to lose)
                       
You better run and hide
Am                
Yeah you've crossed the line 
                   Dm
I've got a knife behind my back, just sayin'
Am      Dm                       Em     
(Uh, uh-uh, we've got nothing to prove)
                   F
Your social guides give you swollen eyes
                  Dm 
But what I've got can't be bought so you can just 


[Chorus]
Am      C        Dm    Em   
Call it what you want, eh eh eh 
             C        C - G - F
Call it what you want,        eh eh eh
             Am      C        Dm    Em
I said, just call it what you want, eh eh eh
                 C      C - G - F  
Call it what you want


[Verse 2]
                  Am                      Dm
You've taken your words and you take your judgments 
                         Em
And stick them onto everything 
                                     Am
If it don't conform to what you were born into 
                       Dm
Then you run the other way 
                     Am             Dm                         Em
You say, "now what's your style and who do you listen to?" who cares? 
                           F                                         Dm                 
Well, that rat race ladder-climbing fake-face smile's got nothing on me


[Pre-chorus]
Am     Dm                       Em  
(Uh uh-uh, we've got nothing to lose)
                       
You better run and hide
Am                
Yeah you've crossed the line 
                   Dm
I've got a knife behind my back, just sayin'
Am      Dm                       Em     
(Uh, uh-uh, we've got nothing to prove)
                   F
Your social guides give you swollen eyes
                  Dm 
But what I've got can't be bought so you can just 


[Chorus]
Am      C        Dm    Em   
Call it what you want, eh eh eh 
             C        C - G - F
Call it what you want,        eh eh eh
             Am      C        Dm    Em
I said, just call it what you want, eh eh eh
                 C      C - G - F  
Call it what you want

(You can call it, you can call it what you want)
Em                     C        C - G - F
Eh eh eh, call it what you want,        eh eh eh 
            Am      C        Dm    Em
I said just call it what you want, eh eh eh 
             C       C - G - F  
Call it what you want
