Supertramp - The Logical Song

Dm                                Bb           Am7 
When I was young, it seemed that llfe was so wonderful, 
   C                 Bb          
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical. 
             Dm                                   Bb         Am 
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, 
     C              Bb           
Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully, watching me. 

             Dm                         Bb           Am7
But then they sent me away, to teach me how to be sensible, 
C              Bb          
logical, oh, responsible practical. 
           Dm                           Bb         Am 
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, 
    C             Bb             
oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical. 

          F                            Dm
There are times when all the world's asleep, 
 Dm                     Bb                     Eb 
the questions run too deep for such a simple man 
          F                                 Dm 
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned? 
 Dm               Bb                          Eb
I know it sounds absurd. Please tell me who I am. 

 Dm                              Bb             Am7              
Watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, 
  C          Bb           
a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal. 
              Dm                               Bb              Am 
Oh, won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable, 
   C               Bb            
respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable! 

   F                                  Dm
There are times, when all the world's asleep, 
                      Bb                     Eb
the questions run too deep for such a simple man 
          F                                  Dm
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned? 
                  Bb                          Eb 
I know it sounds absurd. Please tell me who I am.
