AmLyin' (x02210@1)in the park  
     GOn (320003@1)a beautiful day
    Em (022000@1)                       FSun (133211@1)shine in the grass and the children play 
AmSiren's (x02210@1)passin' 
GFire (320003@1)engine's red
          Em (022000@1)                       FSomeone's (133211@1)house is burning down on a day like this 

       AmThe (x02210@1)evening comes 
          GAnd (320003@1)we're hangin' out 
              EmOn (022000@1)the front step 
                           F (133211@1)And a car goes by with the windows rolled down 
         Am (x02210@1)                          GAnd (320003@1)that war song is playin "why can't we be friends?"

Someone's screamin' and cryin' in the apartment upstairs 



CFunny (x32010@1)the way it is 
           GAnd (320003@1)if you think about it 
    BmSomebody's (x24432@1)goin' hungry 
            FAnd (133211@1)someone else is eatin' out 
CFunny (x32010@1)the way it is 
        GWhether (320003@1)right or wrong 
         BmSomebody's (x24432@1)heart is broken 
       F (133211@1)   
And it becomes your favorite song
