                    D                               A
Oh the games people play now, every night and every day now

                        G      A                       D
Never meanin' what they say now never sayin' what they mean

                      D                    A
So they wile away the hours in their ivory towers

                             G              A                 D
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine
[Chorus]
                D                        A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee

                 G         A                     D

[Verse 2]
                D                                A
Oh we make one another cry break a heart then we say goodbye

                        G          A                        D
Cross our hearts and we hope to die that the other one's to blame

                         D                        A
Oh neither one will ever give in so we gaze at an eight by ten

                              G              A                        D
Thinkin' bout the things that might have been and it's a dirty rotten shame
[Chorus]
                D                        A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee

I'm talkin' bout you and me and the games people play
[Instrumental] D A G A D [Verse 3]
                  D                        A
People walkin' up to ya singing glory hallelujah

                               G     A                   D
Then they're tryin' to sock it to you in the name of the Lord

                               D                                A
They're gonna teach you how to meditate read your horoscope and cheat your fate

                   G             A                   D
And furthermore to hell with hate come on and get on board
[Chorus]
                D                        A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee

Look around and tell me what you see what's happened to you and me

                   G     A                  D
God grand me the serenity to remember who I am

                           D                              A
Cause you've given up your sanity for your pride and your vanity

                    G     A                     D
Turn your back on humanity and you don't give a lot
[Chorus]
                D                        A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee

                 G         A                     D
I'm talkin' bout you and me and the games people play
