INTRO:
E7 A C#m D E A C#m D E
1.
A C#m That's the problem, dear, with angry people, they D E Try to go it alone A C#m Digging in and making cranky feeble pleas that D E Other angries disown A C#m Angry people think a good solution is D E Getting others involved A C#m So they surround themselves with happy people D E And watch their smiles dissolve
[Chorus]
Bm E We just drag them down Bm E We just drag them down Bm E We just drag them down N.C. A C#m D E A C#m D E Until they're just like us.
2.
A C#m Angry people get so sanctimonious D E Telling us what to do A C#m Hoping no one outs them all as phonies just D E Cause we are all phonies too. A C#m Those of us who once had wives and families D E Understand what I mean A C#m What was once a calm and peaceful refuge D E Is overtaken by spleen
[Chorus]
Bm E Cause we just drag them down Bm E We just drag them down Bm E We just drag them down
Bm E A (carries through to bridge)
Until they're just like us.
[Bridge]
(A) C#m D I am the singer in the band F#m E A We're only trying to lend a hand C#m D And though it's not what we had planned E We understand
[Chorus]
Bm E That we just drag you down Bm E We just drag you down Bm E We just drag you down
Until you're just like us.
A C#m D E x2
3.
A C#m In a square, a thousand angry people are D E Waving signs in the air A C#m While a million other happy people are D E Trying hard not to care. A C#m All the happy people's biggest problem is D E Never fearing the worst A C#m While the rest of us will never sleep until D E Your happy bubbles are burst
[Chorus]
Bm E We just drag you down Bm E Didn't I just drag you down Bm E We just drag you down A C#m D Until you're just like us. Dm Bm E Oh, Until you're just like us
N.C.
Till you're just like us
