Intro: D Em F#m G A D Em F#m G A
[D]We can talk ab[Em]out [F#m]it n[G]ow
It's that s[A]ame old riddle
Only starting from the middle
I'd f[D]ix it but I d[Em]on't [F#m]know h[G]ow
Well, we could t[A]ry to reason
But you might think it's treason
[G]One voice for [F]all
[E7]Echoing along the h[A]all
[Bm]Don't give[Bm/A] up on f[G]ather clock
[A]We can talk a[Bm]bout [C#m]it n[D]ow[A7]
[D]Come, let me s[Em]how [F#m]you h[G]ow
To k[A]eep the wheels turnin' you've got to
Keep the engine churnin'
But d[D]id you ever m[Em]ilk[F#m] a c[G]ow
I h[A]ad the chance one day
But I was all dressed up for Sunday
[G]Everybody, ev[F]erywhere
Do[E7] you really c[A]are
P[Bm]ick up your [Bm/A]heads and w[G]alk
[A]We can talk ab[Bm]out[C#m] it n[D]ow[G7]
It s[C]eems to me we've been ho[E7]lding something
[F]Underneath our tongues
I'm af[C]raid if you ever got a [E7]pat on the back
It would li[F]kely burst your l[G]ungs
Oh, [A]stop me if [E]I should sound
Kinda [A]down in the m[E]outh
But I'd r[A]ather be burned in C[E]anada
Than to fr[A]eeze here [D]in the south[A][A/C#]
[D]Pulling that e[Em]tern[F#m]al pl[G]ough
We've got to f[A]ind a sharper blade
Or have a new one made
[D]Rest awhile and c[Em]ool [F#m]your b[G]row
Don't you see there's [A]no need to slave
The whip is in the grave
[G]No salt, no tr[F]ance
It's s[E7]afe now to take a bac[A]kward glance
Because the f[Bm]lames have t[Bm/A]urned to c[G]halk
[A]We can talk a[Bm]bout[C#m] it n[D]ow
