Capo 3
[Verse 1]
[Am]Somewhere in the world there is a father and a mother
And the father is a son who has a mother
The mother has a d[F]aughter who gets married to the brother of a mother
And they [Dm]all just try to multi[Em]ply with one another
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause t[Am]hat's just the way of the world
It never ends till the end, then you start again
Th[F]at's just the way of the world
Th[Dm]at's just the way of the w[Em]orld
[Verse 2]
[Am]Somewhere in the world they think they work all for themselves
They get up everyday to go to work for someone else
Someb[F]ody works for them and so they think they got a maid
But th[Dm]ey're all just working to get p[Em]aid the very same
[Chorus]
And so they k[Am]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna k[F]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-[Dm]dee-da-dum-dum[Em]
And so they k[Am]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna k[F]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-[Dm]dee-da-dum-dum[Em]
[Verse 3]
[Am]Somewhere in the world you got a robber at a bank
And the bank robbed the people so the people rob the bank
And the p[F]olice came to get him, but they let him get away
'Cause th[Dm]ey're all just working to get p[Em]aid the very same
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause t[Am]hat's just the way of the world
It never ends till the end, then you start again
Th[F]at's just the way of the world
Th[Dm]at's just the way of the w[Em]orld
[Chorus]
And so they k[Am]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna k[F]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-[Dm]dee-da-dum-dum[Em]
And so they k[Am]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-dee-da-dum
They gonna k[F]eep on twiddlin' them thumbs, skiddly-[Dm]dee-da-dum-dum[Em]
[Bridge]
[Am]Don't believe everything that you hear
Let it go through your left and right ear
[F]Don't just march to the beat of that drum
Don't be [Dm]one of them people just tw[Em]iddlin' them thumbs
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause t[Am]hat's just the way of the world
It never ends till the end, then you start again
Th[F]at's just the way of the world
