Guitar Intro
Em A repeat
Em
Well he's not necessarily trying to say that he minds it
A
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
Em
Well he's not necessarily trying to say god can't be trusted
A
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
Em
As certain situations scream for deviations
A
But somehow we always get stuck in the middle
Em
Of this and that and then he should try less
A
Every time he's rejected then he loses affection
C
But don't we all, don't we just got to give a little time

Em
Well I know some people's they got a little less than nothing
A
Never still find some to spare
Em
And other people got more than they could use
A
But they don't share
Em
And some people got problems man
A
They got awful complications
Em
Other people got perfect situations
A
With no provocation
C
But don't we all, don't we just got to give a little time
A D Em D
Maybe give a friend a call instead of making him confused
