Lyrics and Chords


[ A11 = x00000 ]

Relax, take it easy

/ D CG C D / D CG G(VII)C D / 

You see the world through your cynical eye
You're a troubled young man I can tell
You got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with sweat
And your head needs a rest

/ D - C/D - / / / Bb C / / 

And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it

/ D/A - G/A - / D/A - A11 - /

Why must you be such an angry young man
When your future looks quite bright to me
And how can there be such a sinister plan
That could hide such a lamb
Such a caring young man

And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
   Fooling yourself
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it
   Kidding yourself

Get up, get up, get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
Yeah, come on, come on, let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it, whoa-o-oh

/ D - Dsus4D Dsus4D / Dsus4D Dsus4D C - / 1st / 
   / Dsus4D Dsus4D C - - - G Bb C - Gm7C /

{Repeat last two verses, but "killing" instead of "kidding"}
