Chords for The Family Stone Live - "Everyday People"

_ Good evening beautiful people! _
We're so glad to be here to help.
_ _ This fundraiser for autism is very important.
We love it.
We're glad to be here.
[E] _ _ San Francisco [G] is beautiful.
_ [Gb] _ _ _ _ [B] It's always been good, right?
_ Man, I [G] can come to San Francisco anytime.
_ _ [E] _ _ [G] _ _ But today we're here for a good [C] cause, y'all.
[G] _ _ _
Uh oh.
You better clap your hands now.
Lots of beautiful people getting together.
_ _ Making beautiful things happen.
That's right, for a worthy cause.
Hey man, you're taking a picture of yourself.
So kind.
_ _ _ _ Because we're all brothers under the skin. _
That's right.
You know, this world has forgot something. _ _
It's a four letter word, it's so easy. _ _ _
But it seems to disappear from everybody's vocabulary. _
And I sometimes find myself forgetting. _
But I have to remind myself it's a very easy thing to do in our society.
_ But we gotta bring it back. _
_ _ And that word is love. _ _
_ _ With more love, we don't have any wars. _
_ _ _ With more love, we don't have any political strife.
_ _ _ And with more love, we're damn sure ain't dependent on oil. _ _ _ _ _
_ Because love is oil. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ It's the oil that makes everything work and it makes the world go round.
Give it to me, y'all.
One, two, three, four.
[Am] I _ [Abm] _ [Ab] _ _ have [D] everyday people.
[B] Yeah, [E] yeah. _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ What kind?
_ _ _ _ _ You better let me know, let me know, let me know.
Yeah, yeah.
_ I'm not trying to be a good son of a gun. _ _ _ _ _
_ Sometimes it's right and I can't be wrong.
My own [C] beliefs [G] are in my soul.
Don't boot you up, don't back up, don't draw a line.
And that _ makes no [C] difference what [G] happens around here.
_ _ _ _ _ I have everyday people.
_ [C] [G] Yeah, yeah.
_ _ There is no blue or magenta, the green, the blue or lemon, the black, one, right or yes, maybe one.
Different folks for different folks.
It's all one, it's all one, it's booby dooby doo.
_ Ooh, sh-sh.
_ _ We got to look each other up.
I hope it's better [C] if [G] neither are you.
We are the same whatever we do.
You love me, you hate me, you told me that.
_ You can't figure out a background man. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Everyday people.
_ [C] [G] Yeah, yeah.
_ _ There is a long and a long and a short.
There are ways, there are ways, one that will not look up for one.
Different folks for different folks.
It's all one, it's all one, it's booby dooby doo.
_ Ooh, sh-sh.
_ _ _ _ Ooh, sh-sh.
Bring it down y'all.
_ _ Yeah, _ _ like I said, love.
_ _ [C] _ [G] _ _
I ain't heard that in any political statement yet.
All the people running, they all forgot to say love. _ _
It used to be a common thing back in the 60's. _
In fact, I think the world was propelled by it, the music world _ was propelled by it.
But we need to put that back in. _ _
Right now the technology is superseding _ the _ idealism. _ _ _ _
How can technology supersede love? _ _ _
Money can't supersede love. _ _ _ _
Rich people need love. _ _ _ _ _
Poor people feed off of love.
_ _ When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose.
But love is a very powerful drug.
Love is my drug of choice. _ _ _
So if there's anybody out there that's an aficionado in the love department,
see me after the show. _ _
I'll fix that up for you.
_ _ In fact, I got a whole band that will fix that up for you.
_ But we're carrying that message forward, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, it's called Paying It Forward. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
This is the best that neither of you can do.
We are the same, but it only do.
You're nothing, you're me, you're nothing.
And you can't figure out a pattern. _
_ _ I'm _ _ _ _ a baby boomer.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. _
_ There is a [Em] yellow, [G] _ _ _
_ _ a [C] red, [G] one that born is the white.
I like different colors for different fun.
And so, and so, I do, we do, we do.
Ooh, shine, shine.
When I play it, I feel it.
When I shine, I have everything.
People want me.
And so do you.
So do you. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
