[Gm] [F] [Bbm] You [F] can play the game, you [C] can act out the part, [Dm] though you know it [F] wasn't written [Bb] for you.
[F] Tell me how can you stand there with your broken [Db] heart, [Dm] all ashamed [F] of playing [Bb] a fool?
[F] One thing can lead to another, [C] it [Dm] doesn't take any [C]
[Bb] sacrifice.
[F] Oh, father and mother and sister [C] and [Db] brother, [Gm] [Dm] if it [F] feels nice, [Bb]
don't think [F] twice.

[Gm] Things are gonna turn out [C] right [Db] if we hold [Dm] it well.
[Am] If we [F] hold it well, the lonely [Gm] shower the people [C] you love with, [Dm] [Gm] show them the way [Dm] that
[C] you deal with it.
[Dm] [Gm] And things are gonna be [C] much better [A] if we [Dm] only will.
[Eb] [Bb] [F] You can run [C] but you cannot [F] hide, [C] [Dm] [F] this is why [Bb] we know.
[F] Yes, and what you plan to do [C] with your foolish [A] pride when [Dm] you're all [F] by yourself [Bb] alone?
Want [F] to tell somebody that [C] we ain't been cheating?
[Dm] You can feel [F] it beginning to beat.
I think it's true [Bb] what they say [C] about the squeaky [A] wheel.
[Dm] Rascals [F] always get in [Bb] the grease.
[F] [Gm] Shower the people [C] you love with love, [F] [Gm] show them the way that [C] you deal with [Dm] it.
[Gm] Things are gonna be just [C] fine if we [Dm]
[A] hold it well.

They say [Gm] in every [Bb] lie, [C] [Dm] [Gm] we [Bb] will [C] [Gm] fall like the falling [Bb] rain, [C] pouring down.
[Gm] So that the rain [F]
[C] [Gm] [Bb]
[C] [Dm] [Gm] falls on our [Bb] own heads.
[C] [Dm] [Gm] I [Dm] don't know [C] how the [Dm] [Gm] fall shall out our [Bb] fates.
