[C] Well we've come a long long [Em7]way
[F] Look at everything we [G]know
[C]We're getting smarter every [Em7]day,
[F]Ah but where's it gonna [G]go
For all the [C]words that go by,
I've got a [C/E]feeling inside
That [F]after it's all said and [Ab/Bb]done
[C]Though we've come a long l[Em7]ong way
This old [F]world's not much [F/G]better [G7]than it [C]was[F][C]
Oh it's [Bb/C]just like the twenties, machine guns were plenty
Every[Ab/Bb]day you'd get shot up all the whisky'd get bought up
We'd be d[G7]ancing the night through, just waiting until
The joke's on [C]you, ah then what do you [E7]do
[Bb/C]Model T's and Chevies just loaded with heavies
Shining [Ab/Bb]faces like morning roses, aglow with their noses
P[G7]ressed on your window, just waiting to shine
Your concrete [C]shoes, to the piano roll [E7]blues

[F]Getting faster by the [G]hour
[C]Pretty soon we'll be on [Em7]Mars
[F]Build another Ivory [G]tower
Thru all the [C]praise that you borrow
There's still [C/E]hunger and sorrow and [F]after it's all said and [Ab/Bb]done
