Chords for Randy Newman - I Want You To Hurt Like I Do (Berlin 1994)

_ When I saw a number of years ago the video for We Are The World, _ _ where all the
celebrities singing, first thing I noticed, what I saw was that I wasn't in
it.
_ But the next thing was that I began to like it as we all [G#m] did and [N] I
wanted to do something like it, where I could get _ _ a bunch of, you know, write an
anthem-like thing and a bunch of good celebrities in the background, you know,
people who believe in good things, [D#] like, not like Prince or [A#] Ice-T, but I mean
like [G#] Kenny Rogers [N] or Kenny Loggins or some Kenny, Kenny Kenny, and _ _ Johnny Chimney,
and, you know, Sting, he's doing good things, Rainforest and stuff like that.
_ _ But I get all them together and I'd have to be on it because I wrote it the
goddamn thing.
They'd have to let me sing.
Cindy Lauper wouldn't be able to fight
the mic away from me.
Anyway, so I wrote this with that in mind, so you have to
picture the video that I'm planning on doing when I can get these people
together [G] of, you know, a group of good, good celebrities _ standing in the
background as I begin.
I wouldn't sing the whole thing.
I'll [D] tell you how I'd lay it [Em] out.
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [D] _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ I ran out on my [C] children.
_ They're humming in the [E] background.
_ _ [Am] And _ _ _ [C] _
I ran out on my [D] wife.
_ _ _ [Em] _
_ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
Could've run out on you [Em] too, baby.
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ Got a [D] long my life.
_ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bm] Everybody cried.
_ [C] The night I left, _ _ [E]
well, [F#m] almost everybody did.
[Am] _ _ _ _ [C]
My little boy just told [D] me, he said,
_ _ _ [Em] _
_ [D] _ _ [G] _ put my arm, [Bm] _
put my arm around his [Em] little shoulder.
_ _ [G] _
_ _ [C] _ _ They're getting ready [Am] to come back. _
This is what [D] I said to him.
_ _ [Em] _
[F#] He also said,
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [D] Swaying back and forth, holding hands.
[Em] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _
Honest [Am] I do.
Honest [D] I do. _
Honest [G] I do.
_ _ [D] _ [Em] And [Bm] I was gonna get [C] Michael Jackson to do [D] this part, but I'm not sure now
whether he's a good celebrity or a bad [G] celebrity.
But we'll get him anyway.
We need it, you know, for, just for the money.
To earn it for the Crippled Skrulls Foundation.
[G] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ If I had one [C] wish, one dream I knew would come true.
[E] He'd do this part [F#m] here.
_ [Am] _
_ _ _ [C] _ I'd want to speak to all the people of [D] the world.
_ _ [Em] _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
And I'd get up [Bm] there, _ I'd get up there [Em] on that platform.
_ [G] First I'd sing a [Em] song or two, you know I [C] wouldn't.
_ _ _ _ And I'd tell you what I'd [D] do.
_ _ _ [E] I'd talk to [D] the people and I'd say,
[G]
it's a rough, rough world.
[B] [D] It's a tough, tough world.
[C]
[Em] You know.
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [Am]
Things don't always, [C] things don't always go the [D] way we planned.
_ _ [Em] _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
_ This one [Bm] thing, _ this one [Em] thing we all have in common.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Am] Something everyone can [D] understand.
_ All [Em] over the world sing [D] along.
I [G] just
