Obvious Song Chords by Joe Jackson

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ There was a man [B] in the jungle trying to make [A] ends meet.
Found himself [D] one day with an axe in [A] his hand.
And a voice said, buddy, can you bear that dream?
We've got to save this world.
Stop with the old man.
There was a rock and roll millionaire from the USA.
Doing three [D] to the gallon in a big [A] white car.
And he sang and danced until he polluted the air.
And he blew a lot of smoke from a Cuban cigar.
[Em] _ And the stars were looking down through a hole in the sky.
[E] And if they could see, they'd cry, that's obvious.
_ [Em] _ _ And the walls were coming down between the west and the east.
You don't have to be a [B] hippie to believe in these [C] facts.
That's obvious.
_ [G] [A] It's obvious. _ _
Obvious. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] There was a [B] kid in the city selling [A] crack to get by.
Got caught one day with a gun in his hand.
And when a voice said, OK, get him up in the air.
You're too young [D] to live like this, but you ain't [A] too fast to die.
He was a nine-foot soldier in a stupid little war.
Another saddle bites on the American scene.
Caught between a supplier of a dream and money.
The [D] demand of the man with money who needs [A] a little [Em] house to dream.
So he scoffed all the teachers.
And recruit _ marmaries.
How come we don't even know what that means?
It's [C] obvious.
_ [G] _ _ [Em] And the walls were coming down between the east and the south.
You don't have to be [B] a hippie to believe in [C] love.
That's obvious.
