Chords by Michiel de Boorder
Lyrics by Simone Marx
Regular tuning
The chords to this song are based partially on the guitar
parts and partially on the piano parts (an "arrangement", if you will).
So if you don't hear the guitar playing every chord written down here,
you're correct (and that goes for the piano as well).
By the way: I didn't type the full names of the chords marked *
Too weird.

Lyrics:
Verse 1:
So still getting down we'll get over it.
Come and talk about it, but things are getting better.
Man, what's going on in the world today?
Lay your body down, and I wanna know for sure.
Chorus 1:
Mother, mother can't you hear him cry?
There's too many of them crying,
and too many crying.
So what's going on in the world today?
Mother, mother it's so stupid minded.
Verse 2:
I'm still getting down just don't understand.
Got to find a way there'll come a time.
I go to a place where nobody,
really nobody understands me at all.
Chorus 2:
Mother, mother can't you hear me cry?
There's to many of them crying,
and too many crying.
Father, father of us who live this life,
I wanna live this life
and save a childs life.
Verse 3:
We've gotta save a world today.
Gotta change a life, one by one.
So what's going on in the world today?
Mother, mother they're so stupid minded.
And who really cares in the world today?
Father, father you've got to survive it
Chorus 3:
Mother, mother save the baby's love,
give each other love, save each other.
Father, father can't you hear me cry?
I wanna live this life.
Save a childs life.
We gotta save the world today.
We've got to try to live,
we've got to survive it.
So who really cares in de the world today?
Mother, mother they're so stupid minded.
