VERSE 1

D/G
Day in and day out

          Bm
Watch him scream, watch him shout

            D
Through the silence


Through the silence

         D/G
Give him ears, give him eyes

          Bm
Give some point to the cries

          D
And the violence


Oh, the violence

         Em          G 
Hear him scream your name



CHORUS

D    F#m       Bm                        G-G-G
I... I  would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive

    D F#m    Bm                                 G-G-G
The one who never let the worst get the best of him

D/G     Bm       D
Get the best of him



VERSE 2 - chords same as VERSE 1

(Best I can tell, Tiemann's countermelody on this verse
 involves droning the D note on the open 4th string while
 playing around with a D-major scale on the 3rd, 2nd, 
 and 1st strings - I'm not smart enough to tab it)

This city feels low
Against the gleam and the glow
Of his diligence
To their elegance
Just feel anger, feel pain
Feel the sun and the rain
Just feel something
Oh, feel something
Hear him scream your name

CHORUS 2

D    F#m       Bm                        G-G-G
I... I  would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive

    D F#m    Bm                                 G-G-G
The one who never let the worst get the best of him

D    F#m       Bm                        G-G-G
I... I  would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive

    D F#m    Bm                                 G-G-G
The one who never let the worst get the best of him
