You're Asking Me

	  		
Intro D  A  C  G  (x2) 

verse 1 
D             A    C                 G 
You're asking me, "what's it leading to? 
D                   G     C7               F 
Will we live a long life, will it treat us fair?" 
F                            C             Bb 
No point asking me because I haven't got a clue 
D             A    C            G 
You're asking me, "will it be alright?" 
D                G  C7              F 
If you're asking me don't take my advice 
F                                 C               Bb 
And don't make me responsible for you living your life 

D           F             G         F              G 
I could say there will be laughter, you will never cry 
F               G         A 
I could just as easily go tell a lie, couldn't I, yeah 
F               G      F               G 
What would come after, that would be unwise 
F                  G                A 
If that's what you really want then get a life, get a life, get a life
 

verse 2 
D             A    C            G 
You're asking me, "will it be alright?" 
D                  G      C7           F 
Because I've been around, I have the insight 
    F                               C                   Bb 
And I was there the first time so I must know what it's like 
D                A   C               Bb 
If you're asking me, don't take my advice 

Bridge 
Gm               Gm7 
Do we learn from all the questions that we ask 
Gm6                          Dsus4   D 
Do we listen to the past, we never do 
     Gm           Gm7 
It's up to you to go and make your own mistakes 
Gm6 
Have a go and break a leg 
    C                                      D 
But please don't come home crying when you do 

verse 3 
D             A   C               G 
You're asking me, don't take my advice 
D                         G    C7              F 
Because I've been there before doesn't come to pass 
     F                             C                  Bb 
That I have all the answers to the questions that you ask 
D           A     C                   G 
I'm telling you because you're asking me

Bridge 
Gm      Gm7 
Anyway, what am I supposed to say 
Gm6                            Dsus4    D 
Could say everything is really brilliant 
Gm          Gm7 
Anything to make your worries disappear 
Gm6 
Put your conscience in the clear 
    C                                      D 
And make you think there's nothing left to fear 

verse 4 
D             A    C                 G 
You're asking me, "what's it leading to? 
D                   G     C7               F 
Will we live a long life, will it treat us fair?" 
F                            C           Bb 
No point asking me because I wasn't even there 

Chorus 
F          G         F          G 
First time around it was really grand 
F                    G             A 
But inside something said to me go get a life, get a life 
F            G      F           G 
Now that I'm here I can't understand 
    F         G          A 
Why anyone is asking me, if I could give a damn 
            F             G         F              G 
I could say there will be laughter, you will never cry 
F               G         A 
I could just as easily go tell a lie, couldn't I? 
     F               G      F               G 
Then what would come after, that would be unwise 
F                  G                A 
If that's what you really want then get a life, get a life, get a life 

Outro 
D                A   C               Bb 
If you're asking me, don't take my advice
