E E7 Am Am/G D/F#



[Verse]

C        Em              C7        F

People, we're only people

            E                    E7                        Am        Am/G

There's not much anyone can do, really do about that

              D/F#

But it hasn't stopped us yet



C      Em                           C7           F

People, we know so little about ourselves

         E                 E7                   Am        Am/G

But just enough to wanna be nearly anybody else

                D/F#

How does that add up? Oh



[Chorus]

Dm                G

Friends, all my friends

      Am                    Am/G  F

Oh, I hope you're somewhere smiling

Dm            G

Just know I think about you

Am                         Am/G             F

More kindly than you and I have ever been

Gm                                          F     Em

And I'll see you the next time around the bend, oh ho



C  Em C7 F E E7 Am Am/G D/F#

(Oh)



[Verse]

C      Em           C7        F

People, what's the deal?

E

You've been hurt

    E7

And I've been hurt

                  Am        Am/G        D/F#

But what do we do now?



C      Em               C7        F

People, we're only people

                    E              E7                     Am                Am/G        D/F#

There ain't a thing one person can ever change about that               Oh



[Chorus]

Dm                G

Friends, all my friends

      Am                    Am/G F

Oh, I hope you're somewhere smiling

Dm            G

Just know I think about you

Am                         Am/G             F

More kindly than you and I have ever been

Gm                                          F        Em

And I'll see you the next time around the bend, oh ho



C  Em C7 F E E7 Am Am/G D/F#

(Oh)



[Coda]

            F              G                     C/E            F

I think the end of it all may look a lot like the beginning

        Dm                   G

Passed around from hand to hand

              C/E            Am

Screaming for no particular reason

          F                G

The company gets pretty thin

               C/E              F

So we start to shed all our distinctions

           Dm

So why not me?

        G

Why not you?

        C/E        F

Why not now?



   Am/G C/E
