D5                   B5                D5
Some people might say my life is in a rut. I'm quite

B5                   D5
hap-py with what I got.

              B5                           D5
People might say that I should strive for more, but I'm so

B5                        B5
happy I can't see the point.

Eb5            
Some-things ha-ppen-ing here today_ a

B5                          Eb5

B5                       Eb5           B5
I'm so hap-py and you're so kind_, you want more mon-ey, of course

Eb5
I don't mind to buy

E5                           F#5    
nu-cle-ar text-books for at-om-ic crimes and the


B5                    Eb5
public gets what the public wants_ but

E5                         F#5
I want no-thing this so-ci-e-ty's got_


Verse 2
~~~~~~~
Some people might get some pleasure out of hate,
Me I've e-nough alrea-dy on my plate.
People might need some tension to relax, me I'm to
Busy dod-ging between the
Flak. What you see_ is what you get, you've
Made your bed you betterlie in it you
Choose your leaders and place your trust
As their lies wash you down and their prom-
ises rust, you'll see
Kid-ney machines re-placed by rockets and guns and the
Public wants what the public gets but
I don't get what this so-ci-e-ty wants
