G/D A/D G/D D
Everybody's going to the movies
G/D A/D G/D D
Everybody's leaving for the show
Em F#m G Gsus4 G
Seems as if we've lost the nerves for feeling
Em F#m G D
And no one's in the mood to want to know
(Chorus)
A D G
I've got news for you this is not a game
A G
I've got news for you are you listening?
G D A D G
I've got news for you we are all the same
A G A G D
And when that is understood we can start to live again
G/D A/D G/D D
Can you look inside yourself and tell me
G/D A/D G/D D
That your emptiness is just a state of mind?
Em F#m G Gsus4 G
And you'll feel better if you just keep busy
Em F#m G D
If you leave your feelings all behind
(Chorus 2)
A D G
I've got news for you this is not a game
A G
I've got news for you are you listening?
G D A D G
I've got news for you we are all to blame
A G A G D
And when that is understood we can start to live again
A G D A G D
Oh, start to live again, people, people tell me where have you been?
G/D A/D G/D D
Ever feel as if your heart was whispering
G/D A/D G/D D
Like a special voice you never heard before
Em F#m G Gsus4 G
And something deep inside your soul was ticking
Em F#m G D
As if someone was pounding on the door
(Chorus 3)
A D G
I've got news for you this is not a game
A G
I've got news for you are you listening?
G D A D G
I've got news for you we are all the same
A D G
I've got news for you this is not a game
A D G
I've got news for you we are all to blame
A G A G D
And when that is understood we can start to live again
A G A G D
Oh, yes, when that is understood we can start to live, start to live again
(Optional ending particularly for church - ha ha!) Repeat and fade
A G D
He loves you baby, baby, oooh la la, he loves you baby, baby, oooh lala, oooh lala
