(Original Key: Bb)





Intro:



G  D7 (x4)



Verse 1:



       G                  D7                     G

I know so many people who think they can do it a-lone.

     G                       D7                   G

They isolate their heads and stay in their safety zones.



Bridge 1:



Bb                F7

 Now what can you tell them?

Bb                F              Em           C

 And what can you say that won't make them de-fensive?



Chorus 1:



G                  Em

 I know there's an answer,

G                Em                Am7       C/D

 I know now, but I have to find it by myself.



Verse 2:



          G

They come on like they're peaceful,

    D7                   G

But inside they're so up-tight.

     G

They trip through their day,

    D7                          G

And waste all their thoughts at night.



Bridge 2:



Bb             F7

 Now how can I come on,

Bb                 F             Em            C

 And tell them the way that they live could be better?



Chorus 2:



G                  Em

 I know there's an answer,

G                Em                Am7       C/D

 I know now, but I have to find it by myself.
