[G]You ask me why [Am]I don't smile
Is there [Em]something troublin' m[Am]e
[C]Just open your eyes and [G]look [Em]around
[Am]And tell me what do you [G]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
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/johnny_rivers/the_way_we_live_crd.html )
[Am]It makes no difference w[Em]here you do it
[Am]Or what name you u[D]se
[Bb]I know if things keep g[F]oing this [Dm]way
[Bb]Everyone's gonna l[F]ose
[Bb]Everybody's gonna [F]lose[D]
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...
Notes:
- Intro and outro same as verses.
- These are just the root chords. There are probably added 7ths, 6ths, and other things.
- I'm not certain about the Am at the end of each verse... keep going back and forth on
how it sounds.
- If there are errors, suggestions, or improvements, PM me or comment.
