The Way We (live)
View chords used in this chart
G Am
You ask me why I don't smile
Em Am
Is there something troublin' me
C G Em
Just open your eyes and look around
Am G
And tell me what do you see
Can you understand the things people do
And the way they treat each other
And tell me how far has man really come
When today he's still killing his brother
Am Em
It makes no difference where you do it
Am D
Or what name you use
Bb F Dm
I know if things keep going this way
Bb F
Everyone's gonna lose
Bb F D
Everybody's gonna lose
We're doing alright with material things
You can tell by the way we live
But with all these things man has learned how to do
Still hasn't learned how to give
If you don't have the answers right now
I'll see you after a while
But if next time I still look this way
You'll know why I don't smile...
