talking 'bout you and me...and the games people play 
 
VERSE 
E5 
Oh the games people play now 
                      B5 
Every night and every day now  
                        A5 
Never meaning what they say now  
B5                     E5 
Never saying what they mean 
 
VERSE 
E5 
So they while away the hours 
               B5 
In their ivory towers 
                              A5 
Till they're covered up with flowers 
       B5                    E5          
In the back of a black limou-sine 
 
CHORUS  
E5                          B5 
La da la da da ...la da la de-d-de 
              A5         B5                      E5      
talking 'bout you and me...and the games people play 
 
VERSE 

Oh they make one another cry  

Break their hearts and they say goodbye  

Cross our hearts and we hope to die  

That the other was to blame  
 
VERSE 

Neither one would ever give in  

So they gaze at an eight by ten  

Thinkin' 'bout the it might have been  

And it's a dirty rotten shame  
 
CHORUS 
 
INSTRUMENTAL : CHORUS 
 
VERSE 

People walkin up to ya 

Singing glory haliluah 

and they try to sock it to ya 

In the name of the Lord 
 
VERSE 

They're gonna teach you how to meditate  

Read your horoscope and cheat your fate  

And the further more the hell with hate  

Come on and get on board 
 
CHORUS 
 
VERSE 
 
Look around and tell me what you see  

What's happening to you and me  

God grant me the serenity 

To just remember who I am 
 
VERSE 

Cause you've given up your sanity 

for your pride and your vanity 

turned your back on humanity 

and you don't give a la da da
