[Verse 1]
 
Bm                 E
It doesn't have to be this way
Bm                 E
    Just count the hours
Bm                 E
    Cos when your bed is made
                    A
Then baby it's too late
F#m     Bm
Yeah...
 
[Verse 2]
 
Bm                      E
There's no hope for the hungry child
Bm                 E
    Whose joker is wild
Bm                E
    They take all hope away
                       A
And by the end of the day
 
[Chorus]
 
F#m
Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Dmaj7                    A
Hey! What did I hear you say?
Dmaj7                        A
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
Dmaj7                      A
You! When you walk out the door
             Dmaj7
You're gonna ask for more
             F#m           Bm
You’re gonna ask for more
 
[Verse 3]
 
Bm                  E
It doesn't have to hurt that way
Bm                E
   Just count the pain
Bm                     E
   You've only got yourselves to blame
                 A   F#m   Dmaj7
For playing the game
 
[Verse 4]
 
Dmaj7                   A
There's no hope for the hungry child
Dmaj7               A
     Whose joker is wild
Bm
     And they take all hope away
       E
And I just can’t see the sense
                A
And my minds a haze
 
[Chorus]
 
F#m
Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Dmaj7                     A
Hey! What did I hear you say?
Dmaj7                        A
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
Dmaj7                       A
You! When you walk out the door
             Dmaj7
You're gonna ask for more
       A                             F#m   Bm
But society take a dip from me now
 
 
[Bridge]
 
F#m
Do you want it?
F#m
Do you want it?
F#m
Don't you know that I got it baby?
Bm               F#m
Don't you know I got it baby?

Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Bm                        E
Hey! What did I hear you say?
C#m                          F#m     Dmaj7
You know, it doesn't have to be that way
Bm                          E
You! When you walk out the door
            A
You better ask for more
F#m
Baby, baby, baby
 
[Chorus reprise]

You! When you walk out the door
             Dmaj7
You're gonna ask for more             
F#m
You’re gonna ask for more
        F#m
I said ‘Hey’!
Dmaj7                         A
     Hey! What did I hear you say?
Dmaj7                             A
     You know, it doesn't have to be that way
Dmaj7                           A
     You! When you walk out the door
             Dmaj7
You're gonna ask for more
             F#m
You’re gonna ask for more
