A                                                     E
Oh, the games people play, now, every night and every day, now.
                        D         E                      A
Never meaning what they say, now, never sayin' what they mean.
A                                               E
While they while away the hours, in their ivory towers..
                            D               E
til they're covered up with flowers, in the back of a 
      A
black limousine, whoa-ah.

A                                                  E
Oh, we make one another cry, break a heart then we say goodbye.
                        D            E
Cross our hearts and we hope to die, that the other was 
   A
to blame, whoa-ah.
A                                                    E
But neither one will ever give in, so, we gaze at an eight by ten..
                               D                E
thinking 'bout the things that might have been..and it's a 
             A
dirty rotten shame, whoa-ah.
 
CHORUS:
A                                        E

                              D       E                  A
and they're tryin' to sock it to you, in the name of the Lord.
A
They're gonna teach you how to meditate, read your horoscope, 
E                                    D
cheat your fate..and further more to hell with hate..
E               A
come on, get on board, whoa-ah.

Now, wait a minute, look around, tell me what you see..

What's happening to you and me?
                 D         E                      A
God grant me the serenity..to just remember who I am, whoa-ah.
A                                                          E
Cause you've given up your sanity, for your pride and your vanity..
                  D         E                        A
turn your back on humanity..oh, and you don't give a da da da da da.
 
CHORUS:
A                                        E
