E                   A
Evil, it's been here all along

E                                  A
Good things, they just seem to have come and gone

E                        A        E
In my life I have seen so much go wrong

E                        A             C     E
And there's only one way left for us to get along
Chorus:
           E             A
You got to bend a little one way or the other

           E               A
You got to leave your mind open to discover

C               G                F
Seems I've been fightin' it all along

           C                G                        F
You got to bend a little no matter which side you're on
E (3rd time play Bb?) Or soon you'll be gone Papers, they print it every day Housewife, wraps the garbage then throws it away I don't guess she thinks they have that much to say But when the time is right she'll be the lady with so much to pay Repeat chorus: History, it teaches much too well Nations, had to rise up before they fell And my eyes see the story they're tryin' to tell And tonight I think I heard the final toll of the bell Repeat chorus
C               G                F
Seems I've been fightin' it all along

            F              F
I've been a fightin' and a fightin'
Got to bend a little no matter which side you're on It's a long and and dirty battle It seems I've been fightin' it all along I've been a tearin' and a pullin' Got a bend a little no matter which side you're on Yes I know cause It seems I've been fightin' it all along I've been a punchin' and a gougin' And it seems no matter which side you're on I've been a tearin' and a rippin' and It seems I've been fightin' it all along It don't matter 'cause you know you Got a bend a little no matter which side you're on You got to bend a little backwards Cause it seems I've been fightin' it all along Cause it seems I've been fightin'... You got to bend a little no matter which side you're on
